The Education Committee began to meet regularly to address the following: the range of services for the justice-involved youth must include, at a minimum, a traditional high-school diploma program, an accelerated credit recovery program, vocational training, and access to post-secondary options. Additionally, a recommendation was made to submit a plan for a single agency to be in charge of a statewide system for education and transitional support for children in custody. Improving education in youth facilities is one of the best ways to improve an at-risk juvenile’s life after they are released. This recommendation addresses concerns with overall coordination, supervision, provision, and direction of all academic services and programs for youth in out of home placement. It also addresses issues of fragmentation by recommending a singular administrative oversight body.
