Branham This year the Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections (ADJC) celebrated its 20 th anniversary. The agency remains committed to providing public safety, protecting victims and changing the delinquent behaviors of the juvenile offenders committed to them. The Department continues to strive to provide a safe and secure environment for staff and youth. Safety is essential to providing education, treatment and rehabilitation to the youth in our care; who will eventually return to our communities. During the past years‟ challenging fiscal struggles, the Department continued to provide quality services and create improvements in suicide prevention, violence, rehabilitation and improved community re-entry programs. This year we closed Eagle Point School in Buckeye, the number of housing units were reduced at Adobe Mountain School (AMS) and Catalina Mountain School (CMS) and AMS and Black Canyon School (BCS) became one facility for services such as Education, Kitchen, Maintenance and Recreation. Boys and girls are attending school together for the first time in many years. Despite the reductions in beds to meet budget, the facility population remained above capacity, resulting in as many as three additional unfunded housing units operating at various times. These units were staffed by the Special Assignments Units (SAU), Staff Development trainers and Quality Assurance inspectors. Key performance measures indicate violence continues to be well managed. Our vocational education programs continue to have a positive impact on success when youth return home. The vocational educational opportunities are: Cosmetology, Culinary Arts, Wildland Fire Crew, Electrical and Plumbing training, Wood Shop and the Skills 4 Work Program. The Skills 4 Work Program partners ADJC with government agencies, charitable organizations and community stakeholders for the provision of off-site work for youth. A large number of youth committed to the Department suffer from serious mental health and substance abuse issues. The Department continues to provide specialized treatment programs for drug abuse, sexual offenders and mental health. I am grateful for all of the hard work and accomplishments and proud of the employees who continue to provide the best services possible during these uncertain times. I thank the governor, the legislators and the citizens of Arizona for their tremendous efforts and hard work and for their continued support of the success and safety of our youth and staff. ˜Michael D. Branham 7 OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR Communications and Legislative Policy The Communications and Legislative Policy Division (CLP) is responsible for providing effective communication strategies for the agency, stakeholders, youth, families and the public. In partnership with the Governor‟s Office, CLP creates the annual legislative agenda for the agency. The division also assists the agency in communicating electronically with the courts through YouthNet. CLP provides facility tours, researches and writes grants, develops and maintains the web sites for the intranet and public internet, performs interpretation and translation services, promotes the agency through positive media stories and responds to media inquiries. CLP maintains the Speakers‟ Bureau, producing newsletters, planning and producing the honors ceremony and developing the annual report. CLP is also responsible for the Religious Services Advisory Committee, Volunteers, Mentors and partnering with the chaplains and volunteer coordinators. Media Examples of ADJC stories this year included: The Arizona Republic published a story about R. Dwayne Betts, author of the critically acclaimed book, “A Question of Freedom: A Memoir of Learning, Survival and Coming of Age in Prison.” Betts visited Adobe Mountain School and shared the story of his nine years in prison and how he reclaimed his life. His goal is to show juvenile offenders that they too can change their lives. The Arizona Republic published an article titled, “Juvenile Offenders Given Job Training.” ADJC launched a vocational training program called the „Skills 4 Work Program‟, where juvenile offenders receive new job-related training as part of their incarceration. This program allows the agency to better prepare them for adult life. Youth in the program perform manual labor for various local businesses and government agencies. KOLD News 13 in Tucson covered the ADJC Catalina Mountain School‟s boys soccer team when they played against San Tan High School from Queen Creek. 8 FY 10 Highlights John Vivian, Ph. D., ADJC Research & Development and a faculty associate in ASU's School of Criminology and Criminal Justice, published an article, “Ensuring Quality Juvenile Offender Programs,” in the winter 2010 issue of Perspectives: The Journal of the American Probation and Parole Association. The article examines the use of tools designed to evaluate the abilities of therapeutic programs to reduce recidivism. Media Liz Claiborne issued a press release notifying the media that forty-one Arizona schools and the Juvenile Corrections Department would be participating in a national „It‟s Time to Talk Day.‟ The day focused on curriculum and dialogue with students about teen dating violence and abuse. The goal was to empower teens nationwide with the tools needed to create and sustain healthy, meaningful relationships. All ADJC schools participated in this event. FY 10 Highlights Channel 3 News did a story on the „Skills 4 Work Program‟ at Adobe Mountain School. Mr. Elmar Cobos, Superintendent, talked about how this program gives juvenile offenders a second chance to get back on the right track and teaches them how to work and learn new skills. Youth talked about what a great program it is, how much it will help them in the community and the opportunities they have to learn skills, transfer those skills to a resume, obtain certifications in First Aid and CPR and get a Food Handlers card. The Explorer in Tucson published an article titled, “SB Mentors Help Boys find a Way.” Saddle Brooke and the surrounding community have 130 volunteers who volunteer their time at Catalina Mountain School (CMS). Volunteers include chief executive officers, chief financial officers, military service personnel, politicians, teachers, professors and therapists who shared their experiences and the fulfillment they get from mentoring youth. Youth shared how much they appreciated having a caring adult to talk to who listens and serves as a role model. The Arizona Republic published an article titled, “Arizona‟s Juvenile Jails Free of Suicides Since „03”. The article states that according to an audit, suicides at the Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections has fallen to zero following the implementation of prevention practices. The report by the Arizona Auditor General found no successful suicide attempts in a juvenile corrections facility since 2003. The Capitol Times published an article titled, “Juvenile Correction Programs Get Gender-Specific”. The federal government first recognized the need for genderspecific services in detention facilities in 1992 with the implementation of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act, which required states to organize alternative treatment and rehabilitation programs for female offenders. ADJC reported a positive transformation since it began implementing genderspecific programs. Juvenile Justice News published an article titled “COMPSTAT for Juvenile Corrections”. The article was authored by ADJC employee John Dempsey, Chief Administrator for the Inspections and Investigations Division and John Vivian, Ph.D., Administrator for the Research and Development Division. The article talks about ADJC adapting a technique from law enforcement known as “COMPSTAT” which addresses the challenge posed by juvenile assaults. Since ADJC initiated this program, a comparison of assault rates indicated a reduction in violence since the implementation of COMPSTAT. 9 Media Univision Channel 33 produced two segments about ADJC youth. Segment One told the stories of three youth at the AMS/BCS complex. It emphasized that the agency doesn‟t just teach discipline, but also teaches different skills so youth have an opportunity when they are in the community to better their lives. With adequate help and the programs that the Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections offers, these youth plan to leave this behind and have a better future. Segment Two looks at the daily routine at the State facilities and what brought the three youth to ADJC. Each youth, along with their daily obligations, have to go to school. Besides school, they have an opportunity to earn new skills such as cooking and serving food. Everyone is responsible for completing chores, which teaches responsibility. These programs and more are offered to youth committed to the agency. ADJC wants to ensure they teach youth skills that will help them make better choices and not return to crime. Sleeping and living in these cells has made these three youth forget their youth . . . but it has given them time to re-evaluate their lives. 10 FY 10 Highlights Black Canyon School has Cosmetology classes, which makes the girls feel like they are in a normal school out in the community. If the agency doesn‟t teach youth about different types of jobs and skills they will continue to steal cars, rob homes, etc. Celebrating 20 Years of Dedication, Change and Success ADJC 2010 Honors Ceremonies FY 10 Highlights Catalina Mountain School 11 Celebrating 20 Years of Dedication, Change and Success ADJC 2010 Honors Ceremonies 12 FY 10 Highlights Adobe Mountain School Celebrating 20 Years of Dedication, Change and Success FY 10 Highlights ADJC 2010 Honors Ceremonies Community Partners 13 Celebrating 20 Years of Dedication, Change and Success ADJC 2010 Honors Ceremonies 14 FY 10 Highlights Black Canyon School Central Office Office of the Deputy Director The deputy director oversees agency operations which includes Behavioral Health Services, Community Corrections, Education, Medical Services and Safe Schools.

Key-note Speaker at the Growing Hope Conference. 15 SECURE CARE The Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections operates and maintains three secure care facilities for the custody, treatment and education of committed juveniles. Each juvenile placed in a secure care facility receives rehabilitative services appropriate to the juvenile‟s age, risk, needs, abilities and committing offenses. This includes education, individual and group counseling, psychological services, health care and recreation. In addition, treatment groups and specialized housing units focus on juveniles with histories of violence, substance abuse or sexual offenses. A Unit Manager is the administrator for the housing unit and each housing unit has a Program Supervisor, Caseworkers and Youth Correctional Officers to monitor each youths‟ treatment plan. In addition, the Agency employs and contracts health care professionals who manage and deliver direct primary care services to committed youth seven days a week. These include medical, dental and psychiatric services. Appropriate support systems are critical to a youth’s successful transition to the community. 16 SECURE CARE Due to budget cuts, Eagle Point School (EPS) was closed in January 2010. At the same time, the number of units were reduced at Adobe Mountain School (AMS) and Catalina Mountain School (CMS). As a result, approximately 175 secure care staff lost their jobs as a part of a Reduction-in-Force. AMS and Black Canyon School (BCS) became one functioning facility. The Kitchen, Education, Maintenance and Recreation areas were each combined. FY 10 Highlights Boys from AMS and girls from BCS are attending school together for the first time in many years. Despite the reductions in beds to meet budget, the facility population remained above capacity, resulting in as many as three additional unfunded housing units operating at various times. These units were staffed by the Special Assignment Units (SAU), Staff Development trainers and Quality Assurance inspectors. Key Performance Measures indicate violence continues to be well managed with the exception of an increase after the re-organization in January, 2010, when population was much higher than budgeted capacity. Case Plans continue to be completed on time. Policy and Procedure updates in the area of safe schools were approved and implemented this year. The „Skills 4 Work Program‟ was launched, with juveniles preparing for transition to the community living in dedicated housing units and going out to work in various locations through the furlough process. 17 SECURE CARE CMS youth worked at a food bank and EPS youth worked at the Robbins Butte Wildlife Center on various beautification projects for the Arizona Department of Game and Fish. Beginning January 2010, the Special Assignment and Inspectors units worked at AMS covering staff shortages. They provided coverage for youth in hospitals, various incident management drills at the facilities and assisted housing units when the culture needed additional support during groups. They then moved to provide coverage for the Day and Evening Support Center in the Mesa Parole Office. Training highlights: Girls‟ Circle training was held with BCS staff to prepare for behavior management methods conducive to girls; specialist training was conducted on Dialectic Behavior Therapy, 7 Challenges, and Sex Offenders.

The Dynamic Risk Assessment (DRI) Shows the risk to recidivate for juveniles based on numerous data elements. This risk analysis allows ADJC to: ◊ Accurately assign a risk level for Arizona juveniles that are committed to ADJC, which will ensure accuracy of the assigned treatment intensity. ◊ Show progress in risk reduction by the time adjudicated juveniles leave the secure care system. ◊ Assist in tracking risk levels on a quarterly basis and ensure more accurate identification of risk levels and safety to the community, before release to community parole occurs. 23 Behavioral Health Created an automated Individualized Behavior Plan (IBP) system to allow staff access to juvenile specialized plans through the electronic system. This will ensure accountability for these records. The IBP system will allow ADJC to: ◊ Ensure that recording is completed, notifications are made and the system will tie into the currently automated Continuous Case Plan (CCP). ◊ Require approvals at pre-determined stages of the plan and will automatically notify staff that need to approve stages of completion by the youth. The Juvenile Community Re-entry Board (JCRB) replaced the Superintendent Review Board (SRB). CAPFA Reliability: ◊ Upon recommendations of the Auditor General’s Office, they had asked that dynamic questions in the CAPFA no longer bleed from one CAPFA to the next to ensure updates are being made in the CAPFA. ◊ The Youthbase Scheduler Program was enhanced to include New Freedom Systems for Change Stages. ◊ Ensure that recording of the New Freedom Systems for Change Stages reflect the accurate stage the juvenile has completed. Created a forms database which includes storage, processing, routing and tracking of information.

This system was a cost-saving measure with the implementation of a virtual, primarily paperless, juvenile/documentation file. The new system includes: ◊ A bar code system that was created to expedite the scanning process. By using the bar code system it allows staff to scan documents more efficiently and ensures materials are filed in the correct Formbase folder. 24 FY 10 Highlights ◊ The purpose of this revision was to ensure consistent standards for the processes at these boards. Also that all steps from the newly-revised Readiness for Release/Transition Planning and Preparation for Release had been followed. ◊ This will provide the board with an opportunity to review the complete juvenile case information prior to the board. Education FY 10 Highlights ADJC provides a high school education for adjudicated youth in secure care facilities. The Education Division encourages youth to learn practical skills and promotes educational values. Staff provides educational opportunities for all youth to acquire academic and career/technical skills as a pathway to responsible citizenship. ADJC schools include standard high school core academic programs and are accredited through North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement. The Boy Scouts Grand Canyon Council provided scholarships to two Adobe Mountain Boy Scouts. This enabled them to attend the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) Aquatics and Nature Day Camp again this year. The camp was held at the Maricopa County Lake Pleasant Desert Outdoor Center. Scouts attended four days of camp from July 6 to July 9, 2009 and earned merit badges in rowing, canoeing, geology and nature study through classroom instruction and practical application.

Both scouts were honored to be able to attend this event. 25 Education Catalina Mountain School youth learn new skills in the IBM Mentor Program 26 FY 10 Highlights Twelve youth were assigned to Catalina State park to assist in repairing a 50 year old hiking trail. They walked up one mile on the side of the mountain to begin their new experience. CMS youth saw the real beauty of the Catalina Mountains. They look forward to seeing the progress and how the trail continues to be rebuilt. EDUCATION FY 10 Highlights A cooperative initiative between the Education Department and institutional staff, ADJC‟s Fire Science Program is located at Catalina Mountain School. A vacated housing unit located on the exterior of the secure care facility has been converted into a working fire station. Included in this facility are class/training rooms, a functioning kitchen, bunk beds with sleeping space for ten youth/staff, equipment storage areas and an office. Youth selected for the program attend training both inside and outside the secure care facility in basic structure firefighting and wildland firefighter certification. During the fire season, youth and staff are dispatched at the request of the Arizona State Interagency Dispatch Center to act as a team in support of wildland fire camps. Equipment and training for the Fire Science Program were underwritten by a vocational education grant. A certified instructor, supported by Tucson Northwest Fire Department and Golder Ranch Fire District, provides student supervision and training. 27 EDUCATION The goal for this year‟s season was to change the delinquent thinking of the youth. The coaches, administrators and staff went beyond expectations to make sure that this was accomplished. The SkillsUSA Leadership Conference was a successful event for student leaders. Youth gained insight that will impact them throughout their school careers and for the rest of their lives. The youth attended breakout sessions on the practical aspects of having a successful career and were able to ask questions of professionals from a variety of fields. Youth received ideas that can help them be successful in their careers and in life. Students at Adobe and Catalina Mountain Schools participated in a computer assisted design program specifically focused on preparing youth for career entry into this rapidly expanding field. Equipment, software and teacher training were paid for through federal grant funds. Students learn concepts such as proportional representation and scale. AMS Vocational 256 class participated in the Capitol Christmas Tree 2009. Students designed individual ornaments that represented the State of Arizona. The ornaments were shipped and hung on “The People‟s Tree” in front of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. throughout the holiday season. 28 FY 10 Highlights Secure Care sports teams participate in interscholastic volleyball and soccer games. Youth who participated and contributed positively throughout their time on their teams were awarded a varsity letter for their efforts. EDUCATION FY 10 Highlights Adobe Mountain/Black Canyon School (BCS) continues to operate a fully licensed cosmetology program.

Scholarships, academic information and a special web site are now available to the school for its use. Adobe Mountain School is a member of the Arizona Association of Student Councils (AASC) and is now a voting member. The school‟s membership gives them the opportunity to learn, with the help of AASC, new ways to promote student and advisor leadership through year-long events, activities and special functions. ADJC is a member of the Arizona Interscholastic Association (AIA). Membership in AIA allows youth to participate in sports programs such as volleyball for the girls and soccer for the boys. AMS athletes have the opportunity to play “away” games on the opponent‟s home field and high school teams come to ADJC facilities for games. Youth must perform well in their classes and other activities before having a chance to perform on the soccer or volleyball field. Adobe Mountain and Catalina Mountain Schools have interactive television equipment for five classrooms. This was purchased through a combination of federal and state funds. Implemented a Skills 4 Work Program at Adobe Mountain and Catalina Mountain Schools to provide students with the opportunity to learn the “soft skills” necessary for career success. 31 EDUCATION CMS and IBM have partnered for the last 2 years in the IBM Mentoring Program. IBM Mentors conduct face-to-face meetings with youth and communicate weekly via emails. FY 10 Highlights Eight AMS Youth were furloughed to Glendale's Training Center to work and give back to their community. They completed eight hour work assignments with the assistance of the AMS Administration, Security and Transportation teams. 32 FY 10 Highlights EDUCATION Educational Transitional Specialists were successful in placing 75.6% of youth in either high school, post secondary education, job training, GED preparation or employment. Of successfully placed youth, 70.5% are in either high school or post secondary education. 33 SERVING OUR COMMUNITY/PAROLE Community Corrections is responsible for establishing and operating a system of community-based programs to supervise and rehabilitate youth in the least restrictive environment, consistent with public safety and the needs of youth. Transition of youth to the community is based on classification (risk level) and demonstrated accomplishment of skill levels and needs. On average, a youth spends 5.2 months on parole. Following their release from secure care, youth under the age of 18 receive communitybased supervision and treatment through the department‟s statewide Community Resource Centers. These centers support youth and families with parole officers, family services coordinators, vocational rehabilitation counselors, transition coordinators and other community development partners. TRAINING The role of a Juvenile Parole Officer is changing as Juvenile Corrections continues to evolve. ADJC‟s Parole Officers deal not only with parolees violations of their conditions of liberty (parole), but with a myriad of community problems that include, but are not limited to, drug abuse, parenting and domestic violence issues, poverty and homelessness. 34 FY 10 Highlights Parole Officers are tasked with protecting the community by enforcing the conditions of a youth‟s liberty (parole), but must also ensure that paroled youth, most with family involvement, are successful in their continued community treatment. SERVING OUR COMMUNITY/PAROLE ELECTRONIC MONITORING As part of a continuing effort to reduce costs and ensure that youth on parole, specifically “high profile” youth, remain compliant with their conditions of liberty, ADJC has added an Electronic Monitoring Program (EMP). FY 10 Highlights The EMP will be an additional tool used to assist in tracking youth on parole throughout the day as well as “after hours”. The EMP‟s will provide the department with three layers of tracking capability; GPS satellites, cellular towers and motion detection. Absconder Risk Instrument (ARI) Juvenile Parole absconders pose a unique problem for Parole Officers responsible for monitoring and ensuring the youths‟ compliance with their conditions of liberty. Research and Development developed and validated an actuarial risk assessment instrument capable of identifying juvenile parolees that abscond after release from ADJC secure care. Development and validation have been completed. Staff is being trained. The Absconder Risk Instrument will be implemented at the beginning of 2011. 35 SERVING OUR COMMUNITY/PAROLE COMMUNITY SERVICES The Community Services Unit in collaboration with the Procurement Office developed contract solicitations seeking private and/or public agencies to deliver substance abuse screening and out-of-home services for juveniles committed to the department. The Substance Abuse Screening solicitation is expected to post for public review early January 2011. The Community Services Administrator, along with representatives from other state agencies, met with the Arizona Council of Human Services Providers. The meetings are held on a quarterly basis to update the group on recent activity at the agencies. Community Services is leading the project to rewrite the procedure for difficult to place youth. The current process is difficult, time consuming, and labor-intensive. Worked with the Department of Economic Security Committee on the Housing of Youth Homelessness grant project. Six ADJC juveniles received housing assistance services through the housing project. Through the SRC meetings and assistance from Community Services, there has been an increase in the number of ADJC youths‟ receiving services from transition phase to community re-entry. The RBHA‟s have been instrumental in locating additional funding to assist youth who are not eligible for AHCCCS. ADJC meets monthly with the RBHA‟s to learn strategies and interplay of juvenile corrections, behavioral health roles/mandates and identify treatment options for transition of youth with high intensity needs at transition phase. 36 FY 10 Highlights Continue to hold monthly collaboration meetings with the Department of Economic Security Child Protective Services (CPS) Division and the Regional Behavioral Health Authorities (RBHA) to streamline potential AHCCCS eligible youth for out-of-home placements or service recommendations through use of the CPS Service Review Collaborative (SRC) meetings. SERVING OUR COMMUNITY/PAROLE COMMUNITY SERVICES ADJC awarded nine contracts to out-of-home providers. South Parole DESC participated in an event hosted by AZ Homegrown Solutions called Planting for Peace. Over 100 Mesquite trees will be planted in Nuestro Barrio.

Youth Hearing Officers make findings on each allegation charged against the youth, interpret Arizona Criminal Statutes, current case law, and Department policies and procedures in order to make findings on allegations and decisions on motions made, and write final decisions. In addition, the DPPO has implemented and refined a deferred revocation process that incorporates restorative justice principles while providing additional treatment options for youths.

Electronic grievances are processed and resolved through the Juvenile Ombuds and existing staff in Secure Care. This includes data integrity for reporting, improved response time to abuse allegations and other complaints before they escalate to violence or self harm. This process also resulted in improved quality assurance measures and procedures and cost reduction for print materials. All juveniles receive training regarding their rights during their stay in secure care and an understanding of accessing the new grievance system. 42 FY 10 Highlights Juvenile Ombuds serve as an essential link between facility staff and the juveniles committed to ADJC‟s care. Ombuds advocate for youth in administrative hearings, investigate juvenile complaints, advocate for improvements and access to appropriate care, facilitate the juvenile grievance procedure, and monitor conditions at each facility. Inspections and Investigations The Inspections and Quality Assurance unit facilitate pro-active change aimed at agencywide improvements to the delivery and quality of services provided by ADJC. The unit is tasked to create an atmosphere of self-analysis and continuous improvement, to determine if personnel are in compliance with and are consistently adhering to agency standards, policies/procedures and best practices. The Investigations unit conducts timely, accurate and professional investigations and follow up on acts and/or omissions contrary to law and/or ADJC policies and rules. The unit also provides additional support services such as a drug detection canine unit, a warrant/ abscond detail, homeland security intelligence services and an employee background investigations detail. An investigator oversees the agency's compliance to Affirmative Action, Equal Employment Opportunity and the Americans with Disabilities Act.

New Programs and Initiatives The Multi-Disciplinary Process (MDT‟s) were created in Formbase to be used in the electronic Youthbase System. This alleviated hand written documentation. FY 10 Highlights Developed a database to monitor agency vehicle expenditures which automatically reconciles the ADOA Fleet Management invoice against the agency‟s records. This process has resulted in substantial cost savings; time, elimination of handwritten information and various reports can be generated. This ensures the usage of the vehicles is occurring in the most cost effective manner. As part of a continuing effort to ensure that all ADJC youth on parole, specifically the “high profile” youth, remain compliant with their conditions of liberty in the area of curfew, Community Corrections (Parole) will be adding an Electronic Monitoring program (EMP). The EMP will be an additional tool that Parole Officers will be able to assist in the tracking of youth on parole throughout the day as well as “after hours”. Designed a new application to make ordering items, from any secure care facility warehouse, easier. Departments can select their area from a list and order items from the warehouse. This is especially helpful for housing units. When ordering an item for a youth, who may have a similar name or K number, there is no chance of ordering for the wrong youth. All orders, regardless of the department or housing unit, are placed electronically which has resulted in tremendous savings in time and paper. Created a forms database which includes storage, processing, routing and tracking of information. All documentation will be tracked to ensure confidentiality of juvenile information and protect the „need-to-know‟ of each juvenile‟s case. This system was a cost-saving measure with the implementation of a virtual, primarily-paperless, juvenile/documentation file. The new system includes: ◊ A bar code system was created to expedite the scanning process. By using the bar code system it allows staff to scan documents more efficiently and ensures materials are filed in the correct Formbase folder. 45 Visitors Black Canyon School hosted special guest speakers for Vocational Day Black Canyon School Education was honored to host several special guest Among the speakers was Mr. Ramos from the Department of Game and Fish, Ms. Killiegar, owner of Biltmore Esthetics and Mr. Russo, a retired insurance businessman.
