Title: AC2-Memorandum of Understanding between Department of Juvenile Justice-Circuit FifIteen Probation an

Recommendation:
I recommend that the School Board approve the Memorandum of Understanding between The School Board of Palm Beach County (“SBPBC”) and the Department of Juvenile Justice- Circuit Fifteen Probation and Community Corrections (“DJJ-P&CC”), effective August 16, 2007 through June 30, 2008, and authorize the Superintendent or designee to sign all documents and contracts related to this addendum to the contract.

Description:

The purpose of this MOU is to provide procedures for SBPBC and the DJJ-P&CC for housing a Juvenile Probation Officer(“JPO”) at selected Alternative Education schools SBPBC and DJJ-P&CC mutually agree to plan and implement a process that will result in improved services to youth at risk and those involved in the juvenile justice system.DJJ-P&CC will assign a JPO to all SBPBC’s Department of Alternative Education school centers.

 

In cooperation with Alternative Education principals DJJ-P&CC will assign JPOs to each of the Department of Alternative Education school centers to provide interventions as described in probation orders or exit plans. School Based team meetings will include the assigned JPOs to provide information as to which services DJJ can include in the treatment for the youth and the family.  The JPO will be the SBPBC’s primary contact for all juvenile offenders who are court- ordered to be under the supervision of the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice (“DJJ”).

 

 

Although backdating agreements is not our standard practice, it was necessary in this particular case due to contract negotiations.  It does not prejudice the rights of the School Board.

 

Financial Impact:
There is no financial impact to the school district.
