Initial Comprehensive Strategy Data Limitations (2001) • Information sharing between juvenile justice serving agencies is limited, if at all; • Characteristics measured by each agency differ; and • The information collected is not always useful for knowledge formation or available in aggregate. Community Coalition for Youth

  11. 2001 CCY Data Collection Recommendations • Recommendation One: Data should be generated based on a consistent set of factors and should be publicly available in aggregated form. • Recommendation Two: Examine and report to appropriate system and agency representatives the extent to which objective standards are used for decision making in systems that monitor, treat, or otherwise pertain to youth. • Recommendation Three: Conduct outreach efforts to ensure that collected information on Ingham County’s risk factors reaches community groups who are monitoring and building youths’ assets. • Recommendation Four: Initiate efforts to merge risk reduction and asset building approaches.
