About this file

This file is a template form used by the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice (SCDJJ) for conducting psychosocial and community psychology evaluations at its Coastal, Midlands, and Upstate Evaluation Centers. The form, designated as 904A and dated October 2019, serves as a standardized instrument for documenting comprehensive psychological assessments of juveniles within the state's justice system. The evaluation encompasses multiple data collection sources including interviews with the juvenile and parents, contact with community specialists and Department of Social Services, review of SCDJJ file information, and psychological testing as applicable. The form is structured to capture detailed information across several domains: family functioning, adolescent functioning including developmental and medical history, trauma history, school and peer relationships, mental health symptomatology, and resiliency factors, with specialized sections for psychosexual assessments when applicable to the nature of the offense.

The form emphasizes strict confidentiality protections, explicitly restricting disclosure to qualified professionals and authorized personnel involved in legal disposition matters. Prior to evaluation, juveniles and parents are informed of the evaluation's purpose, the types of information to be collected, confidentiality limitations, and mandatory reporting obligations for suspected child abuse or neglect. The report concludes with diagnostic impressions and recommendations based on the comprehensive assessment data. The template does not specify pricing terms, contract duration, renewal options, or funding sources, as it functions as an internal evaluation instrument rather than a standalone contract document or solicitation.
