1) Financial: In August 2024, we housed 22 juveniles accumulating a total of 230 days of care. This
results in an average daily population of 7.42. Based on our quarterly payment schedule, the cost
for this month amounts to $39,848, which will be reflected in the quarterly invoice due in October.
For comparison, in August 2023, we housed 19 juveniles for a total of 156 days, with an average
daily population of 5.03, resulting in a cost of $25,740.

3) Courts:
i. OFFENDER/DIVERSION: Currently, all civil and criminal proceedings are conducted
through WebEx, with in -person court hearings exclusively reserved for Dispositions and
Trials. Within the Offender Unit, there are currently 238 cases, 157 of which fall under
the category of Diversion.
ii. TRUANCY: Currently, there are 146 active petitions with a total of 202 stays in effect.
Throughout the current school year, 271 stays have been filed, 87 stays have been lifted,
and 74 cases of contempt of court have been filed. Additionally, there are 85 extended
stays, and 257 cases have been dismissed this school year.
iii. DEPENDENCY: The dependency unit is conducting regular docket hearings, offering the
flexibility of participation through WebEx or in person.
As of now, our dependency unit manages a total of 152 active cases. Among these, 106
are assigned to staff, 40 cases are delegated to volunteers, and 6 cases are actively
monitored. The monitored cases, while still active, involve individuals with legal
representation, eliminating the necessity for a Guardian ad Litem (GAL).
Chelan: I maintain bi-weekly meetings with Chelan County to collaboratively address any emerging
issues. I have reviewed the new proposed contract for Chelan County, and after Rebekah's review, I
am currently negotiating to ensure we secure the best possible deal. My focus is on saving the County
money, particularly as the proposed ADP for 2026 through 2030 is significantly higher, which would
increase our minimum mandatory costs. I am also addressing other contract details to ensure we do
not end up paying more than necessary.
4) Administration:
• Law Enforcement request.
• Confinement of individuals under the age of 12within the juvenile justice system.
• Juveniles presenting with mental health challenges before being placed in detention.
5) Needs of the Department: One of the programs we use for offender cases, Rite Track, requires an
update as the current version is not compatible with newer web browsers. After consulting with IT,
they will include the software update in their budget request for next year. I will be preparing a
letter to the BOCC soon to formally request approval for this update.
