Resource Assessment Summary <br /> IV.. Summary of Gaps and Barriers in the Community Continuum <br /> V. Proposed Priority Services for Funding <br /> Part 1. Risk Assessment Summary <br /> The Orange County JCPC Risk and Needs Assessment Committee reviewed data gleaned from <br /> the Juvenile Risk Assessment instrument administered by Juvenile Court Counselors after <br /> juveniles are referred with a complaint alleging that a delinquent act has occurred and prior to <br /> adjudication of the juvenile. The Juvenile Risk Assessment is an instrument used to predict the <br /> likelihood of the juvenile being involved in future delinquent behavior. For some juveniles, <br /> some of the individual item ratings may be heavily dependent upon information reported by the <br /> juvenile or the parent(s). For these items (represented by an asterisk) there is a likelihood of <br /> under-reporting the incidence of a particular behavior and the actual incidence may be higher <br /> than suggested by these figures. In those cases,the figure should be interpreted as a measure of <br /> the minimum level of occurrence. <br /> Orange County Risk Factor Observations: FY 2019-2020 <br /> 4%�of juveniles coming to the attention of Juvenile Services were at low risk(R1)for reoffending. <br /> 16% of juveniles coming to the attention of Juvenile Services were R2 of reoffending. <br /> 29% of juveniles coming to the attention of Juvenile Services were R3 of reoffending. <br /> 31%of juveniles coming to the attention of Juvenile Services were R4 of reoffending. <br /> 19% of juveniles coming to the attention of Juvenile Services were high risk (R5) of reoffending. <br /> INCITE: R1=Risk Level 1 (O points), R2=Risk Level 2 01-2 points), R3=Risk Level 3 (3-5 points), <br /> R4=Risk Level 4 (6-12 points) and R5=Risk Level 5(13+points) <br /> 14% of juveniles were under age 12, a slight increase from FY 18-19 (12%). <br /> 39% of'Juveniles show having one or more prior referrals at the time of intake, a slight increase <br /> from FY 18-19 (36%). <br /> 22% of juveniles have a prior class 1-3 misdemeanor as compared to 24% in 18-19; 5%having <br /> 0 <br /> prior class f-1 felonies oral misdemeanors as compared to 2/a in 18-19 and A-E Felonies were <br /> at 1%. <br />
