JUVENILE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH IN-PERSON TRAINING EVENT

Description

The Judicial Council of California (JCC), chaired by the Chief Justice of California, is the chief policy making agency of the California judicial system. The California Constitution directs the JCC to improve the administration of justice by surveying judicial business, recommending improvements to the courts, and making recommendations annually to the Governor and the Legislature. The JCC’s Center for Families, Children & the Courts (CFCC) focuses on juvenile and family projects that improve the lives of children through positive changes in the trial and appellate courts’ handling of matters involving children and families.

This request seeks a proposal to provide at least 10 hours of interdisciplinary training on the service needs of youth and families to help empower courts and their partners to better address behavioral health issues of youth and their families who are experiencing mental illness and/or substance use disorder and who are currently in, or at risk for involvement in, the juvenile court system. These trainings will inform the courts, juvenile court practitioners, attorneys and partner agencies about the behavioral health needs of youth, the behavioral health services to which they are entitled, and service issues specific to historically underserved populations. Examples of potential training topics include subjects such as psychotropic medication, Commercially Sexually Exploited Youth, and LGBTQ+ youth. The trainings are to be held in mid-November 2025 at a venue provided by the Judicial Council. The preferential contractor will be familiar with legal proceedings involving children, the behavioral health needs of at-risk youth, service entitlements and accessing resources across systems.
