National Research on Crossover Youth: Characteristics and Outcomes
Defining Crossover Youth
7 Characteristics of Crossover Youth: General Demographics Increased likelihood of being female compared to justice-only youth (Herz et al., 2019; Sickmund et al., 2017) • Girls represent 29% of juvenile court cases and between 30-50% of CY cases More likely to be African-American (Herz et al., 2019; Child Welfare Information Gateway, 2017; Sickmund et al., 2017) • African-American youth are 16% of the general population but account for 35% of juvenile court cases and 24% of foster care youth • African-American CY found to double in rate compared to representation in just JJ and CW High proportion of LGBQ/GNCT (Herz et al., 2019; Irvine & Canfield, 2017) • 20% of CY identify as LGBQ/GNCT • 13.6% of CY males and 39.3% of CY females identified as LGBQ/GNCT • More than twice as likely to be removed from the home compared to heterosexual peers • Seven times more likely to be placed in a foster or group home
Characteristics of Crossover Youth: Psychosocial Dierkhising et al. (2018) found that 31% of a sample of 718 CY in LA experienced suicidal ideation or attempted suicide CY experience higher levels of substance use than justice only involved youth • Halemba et al. (2004) reported over 75% of CY had a history of substance use across four Arizona counties • Herz & colleagues (2018) found that roughly 70% of CY in LA had histories of substance use More likely to have mental health challenges • Herz et al. (2018) found approximately 75% of CY in LA had a diagnosed mental health disorder Increased likelihood of familial mental health and substance use histories (Lee & Villagrana, 2015) Most common psychosocial-related causes for inpatient hospital care are mood, psychotic, attention, & conduct disorders (CIDI, 2015)
9 Characteristics of Crossover Youth: Child Welfare Involvement Histories of physical abuse, sexual abuse, and neglect are all related to CY (Herz et al., 2019; Irvine & Canfield, 2016) • Abuse occurring during adolescence increases likelihood of delinquent behavior (Huang et al., 2015) High rate of out-of-home placements (Herz et al., 2019) • Often placed in congregate care Frequent placement changes compared to non-CY (Herz et al., 2019) • LA County (CA): CY experienced an average of 8 placement changes (Herz, 2016) • King County (WA): CY experienced an average of 12 placement changes (Halemba & Siegel, 2011) Less likely to form prosocial bonds with peers and adults (Huang et al., 2015) More likely to have longer stays in child welfare system than child welfare-only involved youth (Herz et al., 2019)
10 Characteristics of Crossover Youth: Juvenile Justice Involvement Less than ½ charged with violent offenses (Herz & Fontaine, 2013) • Usually related to incidents at home, in group homes, or at school Detained at higher rates than non-child welfare involved youth with similar charges (Herz et al., 2019) • Lack of parent/guardian to pick up youth • Caretaker refuses to have youth return to placement • No known place to release youth to Less likely to be considered for diversion (Halemba et al., 2004) More likely to receive out-of-home placement at disposition than non-child welfare involved youth (Herz et al., 2019) Typically younger at the age of their first arrest than youth not involved in child welfare (Herz et al., 2019)
11 Outcomes Related to Crossover Youth: Education Low levels of school connectedness • High school mobility and truancy rates (Herz et al., 2019; Herz, Ryan, & Bilchik, 2016) • Social isolation and lack of prosocial connections (Lee & Villagrana, 2015; Ryan et al., 2013) • Issues with credit transfer (Legal Center for Foster Care and Education, 2008) • Increased likelihood of dropping out of school (Sweeten et al., 2009) The Legal Center for Foster Care and Education (2008) estimated that with every change of placement, a young person loses four to six months of academic progress in school Increased chance of qualifying for special education (Herz et al., 2019; Leone & Weinberg, 2012) • CY tend to have learning and behavioral challenges that result in academic and disciplinary struggles • Difficulty accessing appropriate services (Herz et al., 2019)
Poll Question 1 • What is the area of greatest need for the crossover youth in your community? a. Mental health services b. Substance use treatment c. Education supports d. Stronger familial connections e. None of the above f. All of the above
13 Outcomes Related to Crossover Youth: Recidivism More likely to recidivate in both the juvenile and adult justice systems as compared to those solely involved in the justice system (CIDI, 2015; Herz et al., 2019) CIDI (2015) study in NYC examined recidivism and subsequent placement of CY and justice-only youth • Adult Jail: 57.1% of CY recidivists vs. 44.8% justice-only • Jail → State prison: 25.2% of CY recidivists vs. 20.0% justice-only • CY also had longer and more frequent stays in the adult system than justice-only involved youth Longer history of involvement with child welfare increases the likelihood of recidivism (Halemba & Siegel, 2011)
14 Outcomes Related to Crossover Youth: Access to Service Culhane et al. (2011) examined discrepancies between service referral and access for crossover youth in Los Angeles 74% referred to individual therapy • Only 55% accessed this service 43% referred to academic tutoring • Only 17% accessed this service 33% referred for medication monitoring • Only 15% accessed this service • Just 50% of the youth who were prescribed a psychotropic medication were found to actually take their medication
15 Outcomes Related to Crossover Youth: Public Service Utilization Culhane et al.’s (2011) LA-based study examining outcomes for crossover youth was replicated by CIDI (2015) in NYC Involvement with public services (e.g., homeless shelters, justice, foster care, financial assistance, and health services) between 1 to 6 years post-discharge • 94% (NYC) and 88% (LA) of CY utilized at least one service • 80% (NYC) and 78% (LA) of CY utilized two or more services • 49% of CY in NYC and LA utilized three or more services
16 Outcomes Related to Crossover Youth: Financial Impact CIDI (2015) compared the cost of accessed public services across CY cases and those solely involved in the justice or child welfare system Average cumulative cost across service areas for CY was 40% higher ($65,424) than those only involved in the justice ($47,854) or foster care ($46,670) systems
A Multi-Systems Approach: The Crossover Youth Practice Model (CYPM)
18 System Challenges to Improving Outcomes for Youth Prevention Information Sharing Interagency Collaboration • Youth crossing over • Lack of clarity on based on systemic • Inability to identify what’s allowable regulations youth at the point • Failure to identify • Various of intake needs and risk interpretations of the • Overlapping • Adequate supports law assessment not being offered • Inadequate data processes systems and case • Lack of management understanding processes to promote regarding other sharing systems
19 Prevention Focus: Determine the frequency at which youth are crossing over and develop strategies to reduce this occurrence. Review data that shows where “crossover” is occurring most frequently (i.e. congregate care facilities, specific schools). Begin to unpack the data and determine what factors are driving the rates. Develop and implement collaborative strategies to reduce the risk of youth crossing over between systems.
20 Information Sharing Focus: Determine what can be shared based on law, consent, and/or court order to support interagency collaboration at the aggregate and direct services level. Create the necessary agreements for information sharing at the aggregate and direct services level. Ensure the agreements provide direct guidance to the counties on how they are to share information.
21 Interagency Collaboration Focus: Develop a case management process that will outline how the Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice systems will provide coordinated case management that impacts: Identification of youth who have crossed over Utilization of detention for youth who have open child welfare cases Decision-making regarding charges Joint assessment process and planning Coordinated case management and ongoing assessment Planning for permanency, transition, and case closure
CYPM Phases of Practice Systemic processes that are enhanced or developed to support youth who move Phase I between child welfare and -Arrest, Identification, and Detention juvenile justice -Decision-Making Regarding Charges Phase II -Joint Assessment and Planning Phase III -Coordinated Case Management and Ongoing Assessment -Planning for Youth Permanency, Transition, and Case Closure
Phase I: Arrest, Identification, and Detention Early identification of youth • Develop a process to identify a youth involved with child welfare during the Juvenile Justice intake process • Upon confirming their involvement, contact with the CW system will be made immediately • CW social workers are required to attend all delinquency proceedings (and vice versa) Use of validated screening and assessment tools (particularly for those being detained) Ensure detention is being appropriately determined based on established criteria Identify prevention opportunities
Phase I: Decision-Making Regarding Charges Evaluate how charging decisions are made Ensure equitable use of diversion programs Consider how to best serve the interest of youth and public safety Explore how the sharing of financial and human resources across systems can best ensure that youth receive the services they need at the appropriate level of system involvement
Phase II: Joint Assessment and Coordinated Case Planning Create seamless transitions between case management staff within and across systems Develop a coordinated joint assessment process • Crossover youth-specific risk and needs assessment completed. • Representatives from both agencies contribute to the process, e.g., through regular team meetings
Phase II: Joint Assessment Process Pre-disposition joint assessment process should: • Review behavior patterns • Explore family strengths • Assess overall youth and family needs • Consider contributing factors (i.e., mental health, chronic health problems, domestic violence) • Assess possible concerns including negative peer group, poor school performance • Include a review of information gathered from other assessments
Phase II: Coordinated Case Planning Create a coordinated and collaborative planning process that: – Results in a single integrated plan between JJ and CW agencies – Encourages frequent team meetings and interagency contact throughout the life of the case – Ensures each agency’s case workers are attending the other’s hearings
Phase II: Coordinated Case Planning Coordinated case plans should: – Be clear in describing what each agency or individual must do (and by when) – Explain to child and family what constitutes successful completion – Include step-by-step, realistic, implementable, and relevant goals (child and family-specific) – Be revisited by all parties to the case regularly, including before court hearings
Court Structure Dedicated Docket • One judicial officer hears the CW and JJ cases simultaneously. • Dedicated teams (e.g., judicial officers, attorneys) designated to handle crossover cases and receive appropriate training. One Judge/One Family • One judicial officer hears all matters regarding a specific family. • Judicial officers receive special training relevant to crossover cases. Pre-Court Coordination • Advance planning prior to court hearings • Coordinating hearing dates Courts should also be receiving recommendations and information from each agency in ways that allow for informed decision-making.
Phase III: Coordinated Case Management & Ongoing Assessment Post-Dispositioncollaborative case management Ensure joint supervision between child welfare and juvenile justice Share case management and planning responsibilities Routinely assess case progress
Phase III: Planning for Youth Permanency, Transition, and Case Closure Jointsystems transition planning Case planning and closure meetings Address youth self-sufficiency & permanency Identify practical supports to assist youth in transition from care
Poll Question 2 • Which of the dimensions below often present system challenges to improving outcomes for dually-involved youth? • Interagency collaboration • Information sharing • Prevention • None of the above • All of the above
Documented CYPM Outcomes Reductions In: Increases In: Recidivism in justice system Improved educational New sustained juvenile justice outcomes petitions Pro-social activities Use of pre-adjudication Positive behavioral health detention outcomes Use of APPLA as a Diversion/dismissal permanency goal Home placement/reunification Social supports Haight et al., (2014); Haight et al. (2016); Herz et al. (2018); Wright et al. (2017)
34 External Evaluations: University of Minnesota Studies Haight et al. (2016) • Evaluated CYPM efforts in a Minnesota county Key finding: Youth who participated in CYPM had a lower likelihood of recidivism compared to a matched group receiving ‘business as usual,’ even when controlling for variables such as location and time. Haight et al. (2014) • Conducted a study on the experiences of professionals in five Minnesota CYPM sites Key finding: 99% of CYPM participants reported positive, structural changes in service delivery
35 External Evaluations: University of Nebraska-Omaha Case Processing Outcomes Increased # of youth diverted or dismissed Increased # of delinquency & dependency case closures Reduced # of new sustained JJ petitions Social/Behavioral Outcomes Better living situation 9 months after identification Fewer group home/congregate care and detention/correctional placements Improved pro-social behavior Recidivism Outcomes Fewer # of new arrests 9 months after identification Longer time to recidivate Arrested for less serious offenses Cost Benefit Analysis Estimated annual savings of over $170,000 per year in Douglas County, NE (Wright, Spohn, & Chenane, 2017)
36 External Evaluations National Institute of California Evidence-Based Justice (2020) Clearinghouse for Child Welfare • CYPM received a “Promising” (2018) evidence rating • CYPM was designated as • Program Type identified a having “Promising Research Diversion, Vocational/Job Evidence” with a rating of 3 out Training, Wraparound/Case of 5 based on the Management, Children Exposed aforementioned studies to Violence, Court Processing • Relevance to Child and Family Well-Being was deemed High for CYPM
