District Description The 22nd Judicial District lies within the Southwest corner of the State and is comprised of Montezuma and Dolores Counties. Within its boundaries lie the municipalities of Cortez, Dolores, Mancos, Dove Creek, and Rico. The district borders three states, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah, as well as the Navajo Reservation. It is one of two districts in the state that house a Reservation, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe. It is one of the smallest districts in the State, primarily rural with agriculture, service industry, and government providing the majority of employment. The district will be allocated 2 beds to be housed at the Grand Mesa Youth Services Center, located four hours away in Grand Junction, CO. CYDC collaborates with a variety of agencies both through JSPC membership and other collaborative initiatives such as the Community Engagement Team and HB1451. Because of the close proximity to both the Ute Mountain Ute tribe and the Navajo Nation, collaborative efforts extend outside of our own district to find interventions for the Native American youth we serve.

MTR Description The 22nd Judicial District will continue to utilize the Marijuana Tax Revenue Funds to provide monetary assistance to eligible juveniles. Financial Assistance will include professional services such as evaluations, intake costs, treatment, counseling, and education for both mental health and substance abuse issues that are identified. In addition, we will be utilizing the funds to support juveniles that are screened for marijuana use both past and present through the MAYSI, CJRA, and UA testing, in order to obtain other types of treatment such as specialized treatment which may include sex offender or domestic violence treatment. Additionally, CYDC/MTR funding will continue to be utilized to ensure ongoing availability of MST services for qualifying youth in our area. CYDC/MTR case manager will also provide financial assistance in the form of gas cards to assist families in transporting youth to treatment, testing, prosocial activities, educational and vocational support, etc. This is an essential service in this district as the 22nd JD is a rural area where resources are spread over large distances. Incentives will also be available for eligible youth including gift cards, recreation passes, or other approved ideas as presented by the youth.

Additional Goal Description and Information:

The JSPC's additional goal was created to help focus our efforts on meeting the needs of our Crossover Youth and youth that are involved in other systems, such as special education or mental health services. This goal will help us to make a more concentrated effort to utilize the Community Engagement Team (for Montezuma County) and the IST (for Dolores County) as a support for youth. We would like to ensure that we are complying with our Crossover Youth Plan, which requires that all Crossover Youth be referred to CET/IST. This goal will also help us track any refusals to participate, which can lead to conversations on how to reduce that barrier in the future.

Additional Questions

Screening training is required for new users in addition to annual refreshers. Describe your local plan to ensure consistent approaches are maintained amongst screeners and contracted providers?

The local plan for the 22nd JD to ensure consistent approaches are maintained for the CYDSI is to continue to utilize screening services through Jefferson County JAC and have regular communication with them regarding the progress of screening implementation for the 22nd. The required annual training for screeners has also been included in the contract between the 22nd JD and JeffCo JAC for FY 26-27. The CYDC Coordinator will be completing all annual trainings and will also be reviewing every CYDSI that is completed, and will work with JeffCo JAC on any issues or concerns that arise regarding the screens. The CYDC Coordinator has also reached out to local law enforcement to inform them of the screen and the new Detention Screening Protocol for the 22nd JD.

Describe the systems, process, or procedures in place between the time a youth is first screened to detention and their subsequent detention hearing.

• Name assessments administered and how decisions are made, about which clients are assessed?

• When is the HTV (Human Trafficking Assessment) administered?

• How often are staffings held?

• How are overrides/mitigations determined to be necessary?

• What is the reporting protocol with the Judge/Court in your JD? How are recommendations made to the court with respect to release plans?

a. Name assessment administered and how decisions are made, about which clients are assessed?

When a youth receives new charges or is arrested on a warrant, and law enforcement requests a detention screen be completed, the CYDSI, the CJRA Pre-Screen, and the Human Trafficking Assessment are all completed. All three of these assessments are completed by our contracted screeners Jefferson County Juvenile Assessment Center.

Decisions about securing detention or release follow the outcome of the CYDSI, with exceptions noted in the following question regarding mitigation/overrides.

In regards to which clients are assessed for detention, the 22nd JD has mandatory screens for the following offenses: class 6 felony or higher; any sex assault offense; any offense that alleges the use or threatened use of a weapon/firearm; Probation Authorization/Hold; District Court Warrants from any jurisdiction (local PR bond warrants are not screened for detention); and Out-of-State Runaways. Law enforcement also has the option to request a screen at their discretion, if they believe the youth poses a substantial risk of harm to others or risk of flight from prosecution.

b. When is the HTV (Human Trafficking Assessment) administered?

The HTV is completed during the initial detention screen. It is completed by Jefferson County Juvenile Assessment Center.

c. How often are staffings held?

Detention hearings are required by statute to occur within 48 business hours of the youth being detained. The 22nd JD strives to have detention hearings within 24 business hours of detainment. As such, there is not enough time nor information to hold a staffing between various professionals regarding the youth. Upon receiving the screening instruments from Jefferson County JAC, which is within 6 hours after the screen is completed, the CYDC Coordinator utilizes the time available to speak to the respondent guardian in the case first, then the detained juvenile, then any other involved party as long as a Release of Information has been signed. If the youth qualifies as a Crossover Youth, per the 22nd JD Crossover Youth Plan, the CYDC

7/28/2026 Colorado Youth Services Network Page 22/44

Coordinator will notify social services of the detention hearing as long as a Release of Information is in place; if no release is in place, the Coordinator will request a court order for one at the Detention Hearing. That youth will also be prioritized at the next regularly scheduled Community Engagement Meeting if the family agrees to engagement with the CMP. If needed, an urgent CET meeting may be scheduled. The CYDC Coordinator also frequently meets with a supervisor prior to a detention hearing to staff the case.

d. How are overrides/mitigations determined to be necessary?

The 22nd JD began implementing new mitigation and override protocols in November of 2025. When a youth is detained and screened for detention, mitigation and override consideration begins with the law enforcement officer. Our law enforcement generally has significant knowledge about the youth and family circumstances, and if they believe a youth may be supervised successfully in the community with certain services in place, i.e.

GPS monitoring or home detention, the law enforcement officer may then request a Judicial Override out of detention. New forms have been created to help facilitate this process. This may also go the opposite way, if law enforcement believes there is a substantial risk of harm to others for a youth that did not screen to Level 1 Secure Detention, they may request a Judicial Override. A Judicial Officer is on-call at all times in the 22nd JD.

Other mitigation options are always considered at the detention hearing, after the CYDC Coordinator has had an opportunity to speak with the respondent guardian, the youth, and any other relevant collateral contacts, to formulate a safe release plan.

e. What is the reporting protocol with Judge/Court in your JD? How are recommendations made to the court with respect to release plans?

Once the CYDC Coordinator receives the screening instruments from Jefferson County JAC, which is within 6 hours after the screen is completed, the Coordinator directly sends the documents to the judicial clerk, the DA’s Office, and the Public Defender’s Office. All the documents completed in the screen are filed into the court case. CYDC is then present at every detention hearing, and gives recommendations on the record to the court in regard to release or continued detention.

Describe the process in your JD when a youth on probation gets a new charge.

• Is it dual supervision? Or does one agency take the lead?

• How are violations addressed?

• Is there a common agreement be it formal or informal between the parties (JD/Judge/Courts)? What is that agreement between parties?

a. Is it dual supervision? Or does one agency take the lead?

The CYDC program in the 22nd JD is housed within the Colorado Judicial Department, and works from the 22nd JD Probation Department Office. This allows for close and easy collaboration between CYDC and Probation.

If a youth on probation receives a new charge and is screened for detention on that new charge, CYDC becomes involved at the point of the detention screen per Administrative Order 2025-5. CYDC works together with Probation to formulate potential release plans and recommendations to the court regarding detention.

If the detained youth is a high-risk youth or the new charge is a serious charge, CYDC is often ordered as part of release conditions. CYDC and Probation then both supervise as a team: meetings and check-ins occur together, and probation conditions and release conditions generally mirror each other closely. Services and supervision are not duplicated.

If a youth is not high-risk, and the youth has not been detained, CYDC will generally not be involved in any supervision aspects of the case. CYDC has on occasion provided case-management services, primarily to fund specific programs or to help with service referrals for a youth that has a pending case.

Of note, CYDC has on occasion worked with the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe Juvenile Probation to coordinate services. If a youth is on probation with the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and on pre-trial services with CYDC, UA testing and treatment is often coordinated together, so that the youth does not have to complete duplicative services.

b. How are violations addressed?

If a youth violates CYDC supervision requirements/release conditions and there is a concern for community safety or risk of flight, CYDC would request a detention hearing or a warrant in the new case. Similarly, probation would request a warrant in the probation cases.

If there is no concern for community safety or risk of flight, any violations are discussed at the joint meeting with CYDC, Probation, the youth and family, to formulate an appropriate sanction in response to the violations.

c. Is there a common agreement be it formal or informal between the parties (JD/Judge/Courts)? What is that agreement between parties?

The 22nd JD has both formal and informal agreements in place. As part of the Detention Screening Protocol in Administrative Order 2025-5, CYDC is immediately appointed when a detention screen is completed for a youth within the 22nd JD. If a youth on probation receives new charges and is screened, CYDC becomes a part of the case automatically, and determination of continued CYDC involvement is handled at the Detention Hearing or at the First Advisement hearing, if the youth was not detained.

There is an understanding between parties, the court, probation, CYDC, and attorneys, that CYDC is available to provide services and supervision to youth that are eligible for detention. Often, CYDC supervision is short-term and more intensive than probation supervision, particularly in regards to home detention and GPS monitoring. CYDC has been utilized to provide those short-term services and supervision, including funding for specific programs, in order to provide stabilization for a youth and their family.

Crossover Youth Plan Questions

Please write your judicial district's definition of a crossover youth.

A Crossover Youth is a youth that is currently involved in the juvenile justice system, with a history with the child welfare system in the form of a currently open case, any case history, or a family assessment response service plan in the entirety of the youth’s life (these are designated as PA4, PA5, or PA6 in the TRAILS System).

This does not include youth that have had high-risk assessment referrals to the Department of Social Services.

Describe the process for identification of dually identified crossover youth at the earliest reasonable point of contact.

NOTE: Colorado Youth Detention Continuum (CYDC), Montezuma County Department of Social Services and the Dolores County Department of Social Services have identified particular staff to be the point person for their agency. These identified staff will further be referred to as CYDC and CW, respectively.

• CYDC, CW, and Diversion will meet regularly before a Juvenile Court docket to identify crossover youth that will be appearing for First Advisement. CYDC will provide to CW a copy of the juvenile court docket at least two days prior to juvenile court.

- If an identified crossover youth is then referred to Pre-Trial Supervision at court, CYDC will obtain the proper Release of Information (ROI) signatures before contacting CW to begin case planning.

• For youth who have recently been detained or scheduled for a detention hearing, CYDC will determine through TRAILS if there is an open case or case history with CW. If there is an open case or a prior case, CYDC will request the youth and family sign a Release of Information to allow CYDC to contact CW to inform them of the time and location of the detention hearing. If the family declines to sign the ROI, a court order will be requested under CRS 19-1-304(1)(a).

• For youth that are working with CW with an open assessment and obtain a new juvenile court case, CW will obtain the proper ROIs and will notify CYDC of CW involvement.

Describe a process for promptly communication information about the youth's crossover status between the child welfare and juvenile justice systems and to notify each other of the new involvement in the respective system or information that may aid in the identification of dually identified crossover youth.

The following parties should be notified of a juvenile\'s status as a dually identified crossover youth if applicable: public defenders, district attorneys, local juvenile services planning committee coordinators, human or social services representative, parents and guardians as litem.

• Crossover youth status, any new involvement, case information, or change in status will be communicated to the courts, public defenders, GALs, guardians, and district attorneys through CYDC Updates that are uploaded into the court database system prior to appearances in juvenile court. Court reports will be emailed directly to the CW caseworker involved in the case.

• Verbal notification of crossover youth status will also occur at the initial court hearing following identification.

The court clerk will then enter the CYPM (Crossover Youth Practice Model) code into the judicial system.

• If CW is the lead on the case, the involved caseworker will also file updates to be uploaded into the court data base system prior to appearances in juvenile court.

• The identified lead agency will also notify all participating parties of any court proceedings.

• CW will utilize the TRAILS system data to determine if a client is a crossover youth and will contact CYDC.

• If the crossover youth is sentenced to Probation or Diversion, CYDC will provide information of the crossover youth status to the new probation officer/diversion coordinator, and CYDC and/or CW will participate in the initial meeting with Probation/Diversion for a “soft hand-over” if the youth/family requests them to be present.

Describe a method for collaborating and exchanging information with other judicial districts, including with the collaborative management program described in section 24-1.9-102 and consistent with the data-sharing policies of the collaborative management program.

• The identified lead agency will obtain all necessary ROIs for the other districts and the local CMP program.

• For juvenile cases that have been sent to Diversion or Informal Adjustment, the District Attorney’s Office will make first contact with CW.

Describe a process for identifying the appropriate services or placement-based assessment for a dually identified crossover youth

• CYDC and CW staff will exchange any information generated from assessments and/or evaluations to determine most appropriate services or placement.

• If out of home placement is a consideration, the lead agency will refer the case to the local CMP agency which for the 22nd JD is the local Community Engagement Team for Montezuma County and the Individual Support Team for Dolores County. Further staffing will include the youth, the family and any other agency currently involved.

• Regular Family Facilitated Meetings (FFMs) will also be held, hosted by CW and to include the youth, family, CYDC, and other involved parties such as attorneys, GALs, service providers, etc.

- If CYDC is the lead on the case, CYDC will organize the FFM through the FFM Coordinator at CW. If CW is the lead, CW will organize the FFM through the FFM Coordinator at CW.

Describe a process for sharing and gathering information in accordance with applicable laws, rules, and county policy

• For emergency detention hearings, CYDC will request the youth and family sign a Release of Information for CW if the youth is identified as a CY. Per CRS 19-1-304(1)(a), if the family chooses to not sign the ROI, CYDC will request a court order allowing CYDC to speak with CW about the youth and detention hearing information.

• CYDC and CW staff will acquire guardian and youth signatures on ROIs for open communication between CYDC and CW.

• Court Orders will be requested in cases where permission is not given.

Describe a process for the development of a single case management plan and identification of the lead agency for case management purposes and the engagement of dually identified crossover youth and their caregivers.

• If the youth has an open case with CW, prior to legal involvement, then CW will be the lead agency concerning case management while CYDC will continue to provide court-ordered supervision.

• If there is no open CW case, CYDC will be the lead agency for case management in addition to supervision.

• Depending on circumstances and the nature of the case, the lead agency can switch during the pendency of the case if appropriate. This will be determined by CYDC and CW and the needs of the youth.

• Once crossover youth status has been confirmed, CYDC and CW will staff each case together to determine if a case plan already exists or refer to the identified lead agency to initiate a case plan with the input of the other agency. A FFM will occur at the onset of the case to create a case management plan or revise the already existing plan.

• For every youth identified as a crossover youth, a referral to CET will be completed for the youth and family to provide further assistance and community support.

Describe a process that facilitates the sharing of assessments and case planning information and includes policies around sharing information with other judicial districts.

• Once crossover youth status has been established and lead agency has been identified, any assessments or case planning will be shared between CYDC and CW through FFM meetings. Updates may be sent by email.

• Any collaboration with other districts will be initiated by lead agency who will be responsible for obtaining the necessary ROIs.

Describe a process for a multidisciplinary group of professionals to consider decisions that include: youth and community safety, placement, provision of needed services, alternatives to detention and commitment, probation, parole, permanency, education stability, and case closure.

• For youth that are in secure detention or being considered for out-of-home placement, even if they are not identified as CY, the lead agency will refer the youth and the family to the local CET/IST Coordinator to staff the youth and family. The lead agency will provide the coordinator with the proper intake paperwork and ROIs, and will ensure all parties are notified of the referral. There shall be all efforts made for a CET/IST meeting prior to requesting court orders for Out-of-Home Placement Assessments.

Describe a requirement that dually identified crossover youth placed in a secure detention facility who are deemed eligible for release by the court be placed in the least restrictive setting whenever possible to reduce the disparity between dually identified crossover youth and non-dually identified crossover youth in secure detention.

• If youth is placed in secure detention, CYDC will start the initial investigation by searching TRAILS. If youth has been dually identified, CW will be contacted to assist with investigating placement options. If not a dually identified youth, CYDC will continue with investigation for placement options.

Describe the positive impacts you have realized after implementation of your Crossover Youth Plan and the methods used to measure the impacts.

Since the implementation of the original CY plan, youth who have been identified as CY have been given extra attention with more timely referrals to the CET/ISST for staffing. Information exchange occurs more often between the lead agencies with the additional inclusion of the court, attorneys, and GAL's.

Once staffed at the CET/ISST, youth have an additional case manager to assist with service planning and follow through with the parents, guardians.

After the implementation of the new Crossover Youth Plan in 2025, we are hopeful to see greater impact on the outcomes of dually-involved youth, an increase in communication between agencies, and more cohesive case planning and management for these youth.

Describe the barriers to implementation of your Crossover Youth Plan and the methods used to measure them.

Foster care, QRTP, Independent Assessments, and other DSS-based services are also difficult to obtain. Our department has been routinely informed about the lack of foster care placements available and finding appropriate/viable housing options for youth being released from detention often lands on CYDC. Our courts have improved the process for requesting Independent Assessments for QRTP (or other treatment) eligibility but having the assessments completed and ensuring the recommended services are obtained still does not seem to be working correctly.

SB21-071 Performance Standards

Senate Bill 21-071 tasked the Colorado Youth Detention Continuum (CYDC) Advisory Board to "develop performance standards and outcome measures to evaluate the degree which alleged and adjudicated offenders are in the least restrictive setting with appropriate services." Below are the Performance Standards and Outcome Measures created by the CYDC Advisory Board on October 25, 2025 for 2025-2026.
