December 3, 2021 Laura Garnette, Chief Probation Officer Santa Clara County Probation Department 840 Guadalupe Parkway San Jose, CA 95110 SANTA CLARA COUNTY JUVENILE HALL AND WILLIAM F. JAMES RANCH BSCC # 7587 AND 7593 2020-2022 BIENNIAL INSPECTION PURSUANT TO WIC 209 and 885 Dear Chief Garnette: On October 25-29, 2021, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code sections 209 and 885, BSCC staff completed the 2020-2022 Biennial Inspection of the Santa Clara County Juvenile Hall and James Ranch facilities. To prepare for this inspection, a pre‐inspection briefing was held on July 27, 2021. This inspection was performed to determine compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations. In addition, BSCC staff conducted compliance monitoring pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) for the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) for the separation requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults. BSCC worked with Deputy Chief Nick Birchard; Program Managers Carl Tademaru and Ashanti Hayes from Juvenile Hall; Probation Managers Jill Ugalde and Marc Utsey from James Ranch; Omar Ventura and Trina Gauthier from the Juvenile Hall and James Ranch Quality Systems Units; as well as all their staff and your collaborative partners. Your administrators facilitated a coordinated and organized process to complete all elements of the inspection process, representing the facility and their respective agencies in an exemplary manner. We appreciate the time and energy spent preparing for and participating in the inspection, especially given the amount of documentation requested. We reviewed your Policy and Procedures Manual1; all Local Inspections; annual reviews of Security and Emergency practices; and, documents and forms used by the agency. The documentation specific to your high-risk incidents were assessed to ensure compliance with regulation and policy. Because of the pandemic and our hybrid inspection for the 2018-2020 Inspection cycle, we expected and were provided many reports, completed forms and audit reviews of incidents and operational practices related to youth care and treatment. 1 BSCC does not review all of your policies and procedures. We do not “approve” your policies and procedures nor do we review them for constitutional or legal issues. We recommend agencies seek review through their legal advisor, risk manager and other persons deemed appropriate. 7587 7593 Santa Clara JH Camp Ltr 20-22 Chief Garnette Santa Clara P.2 The BSCC inspection report consists of this transmittal letter; the attached Title 15 Procedures checklist, the Title 24 Physical Plant Checklist (PHY) and Living Area Space Evaluation, documenting the physical space in the facilities. Please refer to the Title 15 and 24 Procedures Checklist for a summary of all relevant minimum standards, indication of compliance, and information used to determine compliance. Mandatory Local Inspections In addition to the biennial inspection, Title 15, Section 1313 and its authorizing statute require local inspections conducted by the following authorities: County Building Inspection by agency designated by the Board of Supervisors; Fire authority having jurisdiction; Local health officer; County superintendent of schools; Juvenile Court; and, Juvenile Justice Commission. Results of these inspections are considered as part of this report. The dates of the local inspections may be found in the Title 15 Procedures Checklist. Inspection Results Operations The inspection process includes substantial reviews of incident reports, grievances, admission and classification reports, case plans and counseling notes, and disciplinary reports and findings to ensure compliance with Title 15 Regulations and to ensure procedures and process are consistent with your policies. The regulation revisions made in 2019 required agencies to develop, modify and enhance policies and procedures. The 2018-2020 Inspection for Santa Clara was a hybrid of on-site documentation review and a desk audit of policy and procedures due to Covid-19. Although we experienced challenges in the significant updates you made due to the changes in regulations, overall, the agency was successful in developing a pattern of compliance. Our review this cycle included an enhanced inspection of documents and procedures to ensure the agency continued those processes. We found operations remain consistent and compliant, and there are no policy related concerns at either facility. We especially appreciate your utilization of the Quality Systems Unit, ensuring the practice and procedural components were reflected in the Policy Manual. This extra step ensures your staff are trained to expected operational procedures that align with the intent and specific elements of regulation. There has been movement of administrative staff since the last inspection, which increased oversight and consistency with reports and documentation. The agency places a great deal of emphasis on managing high risk incidents and youth behavior, with an audit of response by staff. This was evident in our review of use of force, use of restraints, discipline due process and grievance reports. The factual narratives, clarity in timelines and subsequent youth involvement in the process was fair and inclusive of all required elements. Administrators and supervisors review these incidents to ensure all operational and procedural components are included in the final report. This process allows for a productive evaluation of facility operations and revealed youth supervision expectations are compliant with regulation. 7587 7593 Santa Clara JH Camp Ltr 20-22 Chief Garnette Santa Clara P.3 With decreasing populations and your policy requirements for compliance to PREA staffing levels, youth supervision is intensive. Because of this, we focused on safety checks and program schedules to ensure adequate staffing to coincide with your intent to provide high levels of service for your youth populations. Checks were timely and mostly compliant with the ‘random and varied’ requirement and we noticed improvement post pre-inspection. The day-to-day schedule was inclusive of the programming expectations that staff are constantly engaging in activities for youth. We observed unit activities while onsite as well as finding via our audit of unit logs compared to the schedule that staff did a good job of keeping youth involved while out of their room for much of the day. It is significant to point out the coordination of your Facilities Manager, Mr. Cooper, and the Medical and Behavior staff at each facility. The pandemic created many obstacles to ensure youth safety in their daily living as well as meeting their medical and mental health needs during this trying time. Your staff and agency partners work together to provide and promote a safe and healthy environment. Education The Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) provides education services for both facilities, the Osbourne School at Juvenile Hall and the Blue Ridge School at James Ranch. A change this cycle is having a new principal at each facility rather than one Principal sharing their time between each facility. Our initial observation was this would silo the systems, however, we found both principals work together to create a combined curriculum and seamless transition between programs. The energy for both settings and amount of extra services promoted by Mr. Santillan at Juvenile Hall and Mr. Camilleri at James Ranch are much improved from cycles past. The integration of PBIS, use of Ingenuity in the classroom, the enhanced vocational services, and level of post-secondary opportunities allows for a personalized education opportunity for all students at either school. Common core remains the subject objective and teachers at each site promote positive and active classroom instruction. An example of the new technology includes a virtual forklift program at Juvenile Hall followed by a real forklift program at James Ranch. The Office of Education has implemented a Horticulture Program and secured an Aquaponics Grant to support a curriculum and teachers to bring pods for growing greens on site. The post-secondary component is high level as the facilities have seen more youth graduate in custody and in need of these services. Both facilities have a college and career specialist to assist youth as they transition out of the facility back into their community. We look forward to seeing the new and enhanced resources from both sites as they integrate the new Secure Track population into the school design. Programming Juvenile Hall houses pre-adjudicated youth and the new Secure Track population while James Ranch houses youth committed to the program by the Court. Both facilities continue to provide an advanced level of services offered through collaborative partnerships, outside volunteers and probation staff. The agency has enhanced their individualized case plans to align these services based on specific goals and objectives identified upon entry. All youth participate in programming that includes social awareness programs with a focus on making positive behavior changes to address the behaviors leading to their incarceration. 7587 7593 Santa Clara JH Camp Ltr 20-22 Chief Garnette Santa Clara P.4 Both programs place a great deal of emphasis on school, work and unit behavior through their structured behavior management system, schedule and programming options. Each focus on reinforcing positive and consistent responses to negative behavior with Positive Behavior Incentive and Supports (PBIS). This provides for clear expectations, supported by staff with natural consequences so that youth may learn from mistakes. The structure in operations and daily schedules, including the classroom, support this. The incidents involving high risk behaviors are addressed consistently and quickly. This use of the PBIS model provides clear messaging and positive responses for good behaviors. Your commitment to providing an individualized and constructive system for youth is revealed in the daily programming schedule, assessments and counseling Chrono’s, and dedication of staff tasked with providing these services. Youth were involved in all aspects of the program and genuinely appreciative of the opportunities provided during their stay. Your staff were observed in conversations and activities to promote this process and validated in our interviews with youth at each facility. Title 15, CCR Minimum Standards During our visit, we observed a well-rounded, efficient operation with opportunities for youth growth in all aspects of their program to ensure successful re-entry into their communities. The attached Procedures Checklist provides a detailed overview of the inspection findings. Upon final review of all documentation and upon the conclusion of this report, we find the Santa Clara County facilities have no issues of non-compliance with Title 15 Regulations and there is no corrective action required. Title 24, CCR Physical Plant There were no changes made to the physical plant at Juvenile Hall or James Ranch. The rated capacity at Juvenile Hall remains at 330, with two 30-bed units are designated for SB 1004 participants (even with the stall on that program due to Covid) and the rated capacity for James Ranch is 108. On the day of the inspection, the population was 47 in at the Juvenile Hall and 22 at James Ranch. Training The most recent Standards and Training for Corrections audit reports that the Santa Clara County Probation Department is in compliance with all relevant regulations and mandates. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance Monitoring There have been no violations of JJDPA this inspection cycle and no areas of noncompliance were noted. We continue to be excited with the programming and operation of Santa Clara County Juvenile Hall and James Ranch facilities. We would again like to thank you and compliment your staff for their dedication, thoroughness and responsiveness. You have every reason to be proud of your managers and their staff as they continue to do an outstanding job in caring for the youth in their care.
