Background and Discussion:
The Juvenile Probation Department has developed an incentive program for youth that rewards achievement when the youth display positive outcomes by meeting their individual programming goals. The incentives earned are based on certain criteria that guide the youth and sets them up for success. This request is sponsored by Houston Texans player Xavier Hutchinson, representing the Community Huddle Ticketing Program.
Expected Impact:
This incentive will help motivate the youth to better engage in department programming as well as provide reinforcement for positive behavior and achievement. These positive outcomes are anticipated to reduce probation violations, limit the use of sanctions and secure confinement, and potentially decrease the likelihood of continued involvement in the juvenile justice system.
