Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill transfers licensing authority for a secured residential care center for
children and youth (SRCCCY) from the Department of Corrections to the
Department of Children and Families, requires Milwaukee County to establish or
contract for enough SRCCCYs to accommodate all Milwaukee County juveniles who
are under a secured correctional placement, and allows other counties to establish
or contract for SRCCCYs.
Under current law, a juvenile who has been adjudicated delinquent under the
Juvenile Justice Code for the commission of an act that would be punishable by a
sentence of six months or more if committed by an adult and who is found to be a
danger to the public and to be in need of restrictive custodial placement may receive
a correctional placement in a Type 1 juvenile correctional facility or an SRCCCY
under the supervision of DOC or in a Type 2 residential care center for children and
youth under the supervision of the county department of social services or county
department of health services (county department). Under the bill, a juvenile who
receives a correctional placement may be placed in a Type 1 juvenile correctional
facility under the supervision of DOC or in an SRCCCY under the supervision of
either DOC or the county department.
Under current law, DOC may license a child welfare agency to operate an
SRCCCY. Such a license is valid for up to two years. Under the bill, DCF can license
a county department or a child welfare agency to operate an SRCCCY. An entity
licensed to operate an SRCCCY under the bill may hold in secured custody up to 12
juveniles who have been adjudged delinquent and are under a correctional
placement under the Juvenile Justice Code. The bill grants county departments that
oversee child welfare the same authority that DOC has under current law to
supervise juveniles who are placed in an SRCCCY.
Under the bill, an SRCCCY is generally required to meet the same statutory
standards as DCF licensees for shelter care facilities, group homes, child welfare
agencies, and residential care centers for children and youth. The bill also grants
DCF the authority to promulgate rules establishing the minimum requirements for
licensing and operation of an SRCCCY, in consultation with DOC, and authorizes
DCF to establish uniform reimbursement rates for services that are offered at an
SRCCCY.
Under current law, if a juvenile who has been placed in a Type 2 residential care
center for children and youth under the supervision of a county department violates
a condition of his or her placement, the juvenile can be transferred to a Type 1
juvenile correctional facility and placed under the supervision of DOC. This bill
allows a juvenile in a Type 2 residential care center for children and youth to be
transferred to an SRCCCY and to remain under the supervision of the county
department. Under current law, if a juvenile who has been placed in a Type 2
residential care center for children and youth under the supervision of DOC violates
a condition of his or her placement, the juvenile can be transferred to a Type 1
juvenile correctional facility and remains under the supervision of DOC. Under this
bill, if a juvenile who has been placed in a Type 2 residential care center for children
and youth under the supervision of DOC violates a condition of his or her placement,
the juvenile can be transferred to a Type 1 juvenile correctional facility or an
SRCCCY and remains under the supervision of DOC in either placement.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
