What we do

California law requires each county to establish a Juvenile Justice Coordinating Council (JJCC). 

Each county's council must:

  • Create and put in place county based responses to juvenile crime
  • Create the county’s multi-agency Local Action Plan to serve juvenile justice-involved youth
  • Review, update, and submit the Local Action Plan on an annual basis to the Board of State and Community Corrections by May 1 of each year.
