[QUOTE="klmno, post: 506444, member: 3699"] Oh koi- is that the one I posted some time ago or a different one? Ya know, I noticed when I called fed doj last month and asked if they could help, and they asked me what state I was in, the lady seemed to gasp and get quiet before telling me who in their system to write a letter to- it definitely appeared that I wasn't the first person to call about this state's Department of Juvenile Justice. I just rec'd a letter from the youth commission rep on the general assembly and it didn't seem to be the typical "blow-off" letter I expected. Not real detailed but I think maybe she will actually present some of these things I requested review of, as she said she would. For instance, they passed a law a year or two ago saying if a kid is diagnosis'd with a MH illness or is seeing a therapist in Department of Juvenile Justice, then the PO is required by law to have a review mtg of that, then form a MH treatment plan and have it in place prior to release. OK- well, how much good does that do if the counselors provided are exempt from the licensing requirement so in actuality, you could get anybody? ((I didn't word it that way in my letter but that was the jest of my request for them to remove the exemption for providers to have a license qualifying them.) And what good does it do if no one checks to make sure the pO actually had this mtg on time and got this stuff lined up? Gee....I wonder where that loophole is that prevents improvement after we passed all these wonderful laws and got funding??? [/QUOTE]
