📅 Upcoming January Virtual Town Halls
 Join us for updates from the Probation Department and the Probation Oversight Commission on the following topics:
-
The Probation Department’s progress in bringing Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall into compliance with BSCC.
-
Progress the Department has made in updating their policy and practices in conformance with the Prison Rape Eimination Act (PREA)
-
A report on the POC’s analysis of data received from the Probation Department on racial and ethnic demographics, geography, charges, and DCFS involvement.
-
Updates on the POC committees looking into relationship between Probation and Community-Based Organizations and issues with K-12 and post-secondary education in the juvenile facilities.
 The Probation Oversight Commission will host a town hall dedicated to learning more about the Juvenile Transfer Motion Hearing process.
This process occurs when the District Attorney elects to ask the court to transfer the youth’s case from the juvenile system into the adult criminal system.
Invited Panelists:
- Representatives from the DA’s office
- L.A. County Probation
- L.A. County Public Defender
- Office of Youth and Community Restoration
An expert in juvenile criminal law will provide a foundational explanation of the law and changes to the law with Prop 57 and subsequent legislation.
We look forward to seeing you at our Virtual Town Halls this month. If you have any questions, please contact the Probation Oversight Commission at info@poc.lacounty.gov.
Sincerely,
Wendelyn Julien, Executive Director,
