17.0 REPORTING INSTRUCTIONS
Pursuant to Section 223(a) (14) States must have an adequate system of monitoring for compliance with the four core requirements. Facilities must collect data on juveniles held
and must report the data to the state. In addition, the state must conduct regular on-site visits to monitor all adult jails and lockups to verify the reported data.
17.1.1 FACILITY IDENTIFICATION
The JJDP Act is facility based, if the agency/organization has multiple facilities, divisions or substations capable of detaining anyone securely via cuffing
apparatuses, cells or locking rooms please complete one form (17.1) for each separate location. If two or more facilities operated by the same agency are collocated
within the same building, and no youth were confined during the period requested, then only one form is required. It is important that your agency identify
which facilities and months are covered during this report. Facilities which have been determined to be secure and have not completed this form at least twice
annually, will be reported as non-compliant to the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP)
17.1.2 CONTACT INFORMATION
For this section please complete each field to identify the appropriate contact information for the facility, office or building for which you are completing this
report. It is important that you complete all information requested as it is used to updated our contact list in the event of a compliance issue. The agency head
should be listed for all facilities being reported on. If reporting contacts very between facilities, please include the most appropriate contact available for the facility
for which a report is being completed.
17.1.3 SUMMARY REPORT
For this section please review your facility’s custody logs for the period requested and enter the total number of youth that were held in custody, this includes
both status offenders, juvenile delinquents, youthful offenders and measure 11. If no youth were confined during this period, then please indicate so by marking
zero’s in each box. Youthful offenders charged with a delinquent offense and detained beyond six hours; status offenders held in confinement and; contact
incurred between adults and juvenile offenders in custody will be counted as violations against the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act. This will not
negatively impact your facility but will require a written plan to reduce or eliminate future violations. If violations occurred during the period requested, please
include the written custody report associated with the incident.
17.1.4 JUVENILE CUSTODY LOG
For this section, please complete each field when youth are brought into the facility while in custody. All youth, excluding victims/witnesses must be documented
so that violations may be assessed and reported as required. If juvenile custody logs are provided from your facility with missing information, it may lead to
incurred violations of the JJDPA. Parental or guardian consent is required only when a status offender is obtained and transport back to the facility is required.
Footnotes provided at the bottom of each custody log sheet, provide the abbreviated function of the required sections for race/ethnicity and sex/gender. Custody
logs require law enforcement to document the secure or nonsecure status of youth in custody upon entry to a facility. When documenting a youth in custody,
please provide the date/time that the youth was escorted into the facility, including whether the youth was held in secure or nonsecure custody during initial
entry. When releasing a youth from custody, please provide the date/time that the youth was released, including whether the youth was in secure or nonsecure
custody upon exit. Secure custody is defined when a youth is placed in a secure cell, locked interview room, or handcuffed to a bench for the purpose of custody.
