Description of Proposed Guidance Document Changes

DJJ proposes to update the VJCCCA Manual, which was last revised in 2014. The proposed revisions include language describing a 2019 legislative change that modified the VJCCCA statute to allow resources for youth who are not currently involved in the juvenile justice system but who have been screened for needing community diversion or community-based services using an approved assessment protocol. This change allows localities who elect to participate to use VJCCCA funding for prevention services. Additionally, the proposed revision updates language and formatting to make the document clearer, more concise, and more user friendly. Finally, the revised manual includes hyperlinks to provide easier access to relevant sections of the Code of Virginia, regulations, and VJCCCA forms.
