Regulation Authority:
42-72-5
Purpose and Reason:
This rule is amended to reflect changes in utilization of facilities and to conform with changes made by the RI General Assembly in the FY 2014 budget. The Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families partnered with families, stakeholders and advocates to identify the Juvenile Detention Alternatives rubric as an appropriate tool and this facility usage is consistent with this instrument. This policy also proceeds from the requirements of RI General Law, Federal Law, RI Supreme Court Decisions, the Federal Consent Decree in Inmates of the RI Training School v. Janice DeFrances, and /or federal regulation. In the amendment of this rule, consideration was given to: (1) alternative approaches and (2) overlap or duplication with other statutory and regulatory provisions. No alternative approach or duplication or overlap was identified based upon available information. Only editing changes were made in the final rule.
