2) Courts:
OFFENDER/DIVERSION: All civil and criminal matters are still being held via WebEx, and we only
have in person court hearings for Dispositions and Trials.
The week of June 19 — June 25th we did not have our regular docket, due to the prosecutors and
defense attorneys being in a mandatory training. Nothing was schedule for that week other than
new intakes.
ii. TRUANCY: We currently have 151 active petitions, 134 total stays, 124 stays filed this school year,
63 stays lifted and sent to court and 40 contempt of court filed.
DEPENDENCY: The dependency unit is also doing regular docket hearings, via WebEx.
Our dependency unit currently have 227 active cases.
3) Martin Hall: There has been no issues with transportation or communication.
4) Administration:
The Juvenile Department completed True Colors part 2 on June 22nd- 2022 from 8:30am to 10am.
We scheduled interviews for the Probation Counselor job description with GAL duties this Monday June 27 through
Wednesday, June 29. We received a great pool of qualified applicants this time around and I am hoping to hire
between the next couple of weeks.
We currently don't have a set date for our next Negotiation.
5) Needs of the Department
I. Grant County Juvenile Court & Youth Services applied for VCAN grant funding for the upcoming fiscal year
and we were one of the successful bidders.
II. The Casa manager program system for GAL was less than $5,000 so I did not have to do a letter to
make this capital purchase. We are currently in the migration phase and the GAL unit will have a
proper system before the end of July.
III. I will be on Vacation from July 4th through July 8th, 2022.
