Case Management

Case Management (CM) provides supervision and case management for juvenile offenders placed in the custody of the state of Kansas via the Juvenile Justice Authority (JJA). Some juveniles served by this program are placed outside their family homes in a variety of settings including: detention, foster homes, residential treatment facilities, independent living programs, inpatient drug and alcohol treatment facilities and other therapeutic settings. These youth have similar risk/needs to the JISP population, while being from families found by the court to be currently incapable of addressing the issues preventing a disposition of probation. This program also serves juvenile offenders directly committed by a district court judge to serve time in a juvenile correctional facility (JCF) as well as offenders being conditionally released from a JCF. A community supervision officer is assigned to each youth placed in JJA custody. The CSO will conduct the YLS/CMI, which assesses the risk/needs of the juvenile and the family circumstances, and develop a supervision plan as well as a permanency plan with the offender and the family. The CSO helps the offender and his family work towards the permanency plan, which is reunification when appropriateThe CSO identifies an appropriate out of home placement and coordinates with that program to address needs of the youth and family and works with the family to address service needs of the family in the community to help the family be prepared to support the youth upon return home.
