JUVENILES: Requests the office of juvenile justice to report to the Louisiana Senate Committee on Judiciary B on the status of vocational training opportunities available to children in the care of the office in secure, nonsecure, community-based, and private facilities.
This resolution asks the Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections to provide a report on vocational training options for children in its care. The request specifically covers facilities that are secure, nonsecure, community-based, or privately operated. This information is needed to support recent laws that may keep some youth in these facilities for longer periods and require vocational training in secure settings. The Senate Judiciary Committee will receive this report to help inform future policy decisions regarding juvenile dispositions.
