Juvenile correctional system
This bill changes the amounts that DOC charges, or that DCF deducts from allocations, to counties for the costs of certain juvenile correctional services DOC provides according to per person daily cost assessments (daily rates). Under current law relating to community youth and family aids, generally referred to as “youth aids," counties pay these daily rates out of various state and federal moneys that DCF is required to allocate to counties to pay for state-provided juvenile correctional services and local delinquency-related and juvenile justice services. The bill establishes the following daily rates:
1. For fiscal year 2017-18, the daily rate is $344 for care in a Type 1 juvenile correctional facility, and $344 for care for juveniles transferred from a juvenile correctional institution.
2. For fiscal year 2018-19, the daily rate is $352 for care in a Type 1 juvenile correctional facility, and $352 for care for juveniles transferred from a juvenile correctional institution.
Currently, the daily rate is $292 for care in a Type 1 juvenile correctional facility, $292 for care for juveniles transferred from a juvenile correctional institution, $152 for corrective sanctions services, and $48 for DOC aftercare services. The 2015-17 biennial budget act, 2015 Wisconsin Act 55, eliminated aftercare supervision provided by DOC and the corrective sanctions program, as of July 1, 2017, or the 2nd day after the publication of the 2017-19 biennial budget act (this bill), whichever is later.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
