Chatham Education Transition Center (ETC) Youth Graduate from Georgia Tech LEAP Program

INSIDE

On November 13, 2019 DJJ held a graduation ceremony for Savannah area youth who participated in the Georgia Institute of Technology Logistics Education and Pathways (LEAP) training program. LEAP is a certification program that prepares students to compete for jobs in the supply chain and logistics field. The program also allows participants to obtain a permanent professional education transcript of continuing education from Georgia Tech University.
Carole Bennett (above), Director of the Leap Program, applauded

how involved DJJ was in the program from the beginning to end. "From the very start there has been very active involvement and engagement from DJJ from the leadership to the instructors in the class and the students," said Bennett. "They have been very excited and always very committed to making sure everything that needed to happen did for this cohort and that is why it has been so successful."
The Georgia Tech Supply Chain and Logistics Institute created LEAP in 2015 through a $350,000 grant from JPMorgan Chase & Co. to further the financial services firm's "New Skills at Work" initiative. The initiative promotes workforce development to bridge the gap between the talent employers need and the qualifications of the local talent pipeline.

A Message from the Chief of Staff

Iwant to express my extreme gratitude for what employees here at DJJ are doing for our youth, communities and the department each day. Recently, Commissioner Oliver and I traveled to several facilities, community offices and development conferences across the state. During this time of engagement, we quickly realized that this organization has so many talented and passionate employees who serve and lead with a true heart of safety, change, education and

rehabilitation for the youth we connect with each day. Many of the employees we met relayed their excitement about Changing the Culture in our department and expressed many great ideas on how to accomplish this vital turnaround for the organization.
I strongly believe we must dedicate ourselves to create an atmosphere of servant and transformational leadership for our most valued resource, you and future employees. DJJ's direction, mission and culture starts with leadership buy-in to cultivate a deliberate sense of trust, care, support, mentorship and respect for each other and our workforce which is paramount for you and the success of the agency. If we accomplish this objective, I believe our attrition rate will decrease and our recruitment and retention of those who

will be the best fit for DJJ will increase because of the positive and enhanced treatment of employees.
The leadership team will strive to strengthen the leadership culture with the mindset of focusing on personnel inclusion into the organzation and the genuine building of lasting influential relationship which will pay huge dividends for you and our department in the future.
Again, I cannot thank you enough for all you do and praise you enough for the difference you make each day.
I am honored, humbled and proud to serve alongside you.
Respectfully, Mark J. Mitchell Chief of Staff

What are ACA Standards?
ACA standards are the national benchmark for the effective operation of correctional systems throughout the United States and are necessary to ensure that correctional facilities are operated professionally. They address services, programs and operations essential to good correctional management, including administrative and fiscal controls, staff training and development, physical plant, safety and emergency procedures, sanitation, food service, and rules and discipline. Standards reflect practical, up-to-date policies and procedures that safeguard the life, health and safety of staff and offenders.

DJJ Staff and ACA Accreditation Committee Members
The auditors submitted a recommendation for accreditation to ACA with all facilties scoring 100 percent on mandatory standards. This is an exceptional accomplishment for the facilities. Representatives from Elbert Shaw, Bob Richards, Crisp and Terrell RYDCs went before the ACA Accreditation Standards Committee on January 12, 2020 in San Diego, California to defend their scores and receive their actual accreditation.

HITS Officers Earn Basic Street Gang Investigator Certification

One of Governor Brian Kemp's top priorities is to crack down on gang activity affecting communities across Georgia. The Department of Juvenile Justice is committed to establishing strategies that have a positive influence on gang-impacted youth in DJJ facilities and in communities. Four members of the DJJ High Intensity Team Supervision (HITS) program obtained a Basic Street Gang Investigator certification from the Georgia Gang Investigators Association (GGIA). The training is designed to build on the fundamentals of gang investigations through advanced
"Education is the key to prevention. By receiving my certification, I have a better understanding of the law and can use that knowledge to help educate the youth that we serve to break the chain of gang violence one link at a time."

techniques for investigating and prosecuting gangs. The course also provides officers with information to better recognize gang indicators and understand how gang crimes differ from other crimes.
HITS is a community-based, in-home detention placement alternative for communitysupervised youth. DJJ HITS strategies include electronic monitoring, curfew checks, drug and alcohol testing, crisis management, service-learning projects, community service and home, school, work and office visits.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, law enforcement agencies are essential partners in the effort to combat gang violence along with faith-based organizations, community organizations and practitioners.
For DJJ HITS officers Deon Mimes, Kevin Fleming, Terry Roberson, and Cory Rogers the training provided additional skill sets that will make each of their jobs easier and help reduce the number of gang members in communities across the state.

Metro RYDC Youth Showcase Musical & Theatrical Talents

"The energy I felt here with the students was powerful," said Kevin "Khao" Cates, founder of the Bridge DA Gap program. Bridge DA Gap is a 501 c3 non-profit organization that teaches character building, social and emotional development and life skills through hip hop music.
The Bridge DA Gap team spent 14 weeks with youth at the Metro Regional Youth Detention Center (RYDC) in Atlanta. Topics covered in the curriculum included patience, self-love, substance abuse, anger and perception. The team worked with youth to put on an excellent music showcase for DJJ staff on September 27, 2019.

of the most moving theatrical experiences I have seen in years."

On November 12, 2019, youth from the Metro RYDC gave a special dramatic performance for members of the Alliance Theatre, the Georgia Council of the Arts, and the Kennesaw State University School of the Art and Design. Youth were given professional training for ten weeks by playwright Margaret Baldwin and drama students from Kennesaw State University as a part of the Alliance Theatre's Collision Project funded by the Georgia Council of the Arts.
Through improvisational exercises, oral history, choreography, individual performing talents and their writing, the Metro RYDC youth performed a new piece inspired by the play "Ghost". The youth performance contained moments of spoken word and hip hop improvisation set to a musical background.
"This project has been such an honor and a gift to all of us that have been lucky enough to participate," said Christopher Moses, Associate Artistic Director of the Alliance Theatre. "What we witnessed with these young people courageously and boldly speaking their truth was one

Based on the popular young adult fiction novel that was a National Book Award finalist for young people's literature and named one of America's bestloved novels by PBS's The Great American Read, "Ghost" teaches the importance of finding your team.
For the Metro RYDC youth on stage, each performance took a personal turn. Whether sharing tales of trouble or expressing their desires to better themselves while in the Metro RYDC facility, all of the youth told their life stories and dreams directly from the heart. The performances were inspiring to the KSU students and Alliance Theatre actors.
"I am blown away by the depth of the conversation that arises from the students, about how introspective they have been and how honest and raw it has been," said Karen Paty, Executive Director of the Georgia Council of the Arts. "I hope that we will continue to be able to bring it to more students."
There are current plans to add the program and other performance arts to two more DJJ facilities in the near future.

Georgia Tech Logistics Education and Pathways (LEAP) Graduation

Chatham Education Transition Center (ETC) Youth Graduate from Georgia Tech LEAP Program (Continued)

LEAP prepares students in the basics of supply chain and supply chain's roles within organizations. The course includes defining supply chain management and the various domains within the supply chain (i.e., customer service, manufacturing and service operations, order management, procurement and supply management, demand planning, inventory management, warehousing operations, and transportation operations). It includes an explanation of how the supply chain supports organizations' strategic and financial goals.
Nine DJJ Chatham County Education Transition Center students earned certificates of completion in Supply Chain

Management, Customer Service, and Warehouse Operations. The 40-hour certifications allow students to learn at their own pace through a convenient online format.

LEAP program graduate Vin'Tay Lonon's Supply Chain Management Principles and Customer Service Operations certifications will certainly help

him achieve his goal of becoming a pilot. "I will make my mentors and everyone that helped me proud," said Lonon. "This is a new path for me because I never had anything in front of me like this. Going forward in life, I will put these certifications to use."
Guest speaker, Lt. Colonel Reginald Martin, spoke encouraging words to the graduates. "The possibilities in logistics are endless and opportunities are waiting on you," said Lt. Colonel Martin. "Congratulations on this stepping stone that will take you to the next level. Always remember not to allow your past circumstances to define who you are."

education programs that are commensurate with their needs. Among the U.S. Department of Justice and Department of Education guiding principles for high-quality education in secure care settings, highlighted are opportunities for postsecondary education and pre-vocational and vocational opportunities that are relevant to youth's interest and aptitudes and that correspond to employment opportunities in the communities to which youth will return.

more than 70 critical policy and practice elements and outcomes.
The Council of Juvenile Correctional Administrators (CJCA) and the Center for Juvenile Justice Reform at Georgetown University's McCourt School of Public Policy (CJJR) developed the research-driven and data-based practice model to organize the tools agency and facility staff members need to achieve better results for youth once they leave facilities.
DJJ Board member Judge Lisa Colbert showed her support to the youth saying, "I get a little emotional because often times I have to deal with young people when bad things have happened. It always brings me great joy to be a part of a celebration when they accomplish things that I know they can accomplish when given the opportunity and support."
According to the YICPM, it is essential that juvenile facilities provide youth with dependable access to high-quality

The model says facilities should offer youth vocational training that prepares them for local employment opportunities, teach them skills to obtain and maintain jobs and forge meaningful and dynamic postrelease community connections while a youth is still in placement. Vocational courses should be based on professional and industry standards and should provide hands-on learning opportunities for youth to practice the skills they have learned.
At the time of graduation, four graduates had already received job offers and three others had job interviews scheduled.
"It is not where you start, but where you finish and they are going to finish strong," said DJJ Commissioner Tyrone Oliver. "It warms my heart to know that they are leaving with a certification and a job. That is very important. That is going to be key for them to succeed. That's part of our mission of rehabilitating youth, so when they reenter society, they are better people."

DJJ Awarded for Farm to School Efforts

DJJ received an Honorary Award at the Golden Radish Award ceremony held on September 17,2019 at the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta. A Golden Radish Award is given to Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) in Georgia who are doing extraordinary work in farm to school initiatives.

The agency's most notable farm to school achievements from the 2018-2019 school year includes offering locally grown items on the school menu, having edible gardens at schools and adopting farm to school language into the wellness policy.
As a Residential Child Care Institution (RCCI), DJJ provides locally grown food items 365 days a year. DJJ kitchen staff incorporates the produce grown by students in their school gardens into meals and has served more than 800,000 meals with local ingredients. DJJ currently has two edible gardens located at the Eastman Youth Development Campus (YDC) and the Elbert Shaw Regional Youth Detention Center (RYDC). The garden at Elbert Shaw RYDC has a SHAPE grant-funded aquaponics system in their school greenhouse.

Commissioner Oliver Host Youth Council Meeting
On October 8, 2019, Commissioner Tyrone Oliver hosted his first Youth Council Meeting. Youth from RYDCs and YDCs across the state came together to engage the DJJ leadership team and ask important questions regarding their facilities. The guest speaker for the meeting was Dr. Rashad Richey from radio station WAOK-Atlanta. Dr. Richey shared his truly inspirational journey to success after being in the juvenile justice system.
Held quarterly, the Commissioner's Youth Council (CYC) gives incarcerated youth at our secure facilities the opportunity to discuss issues or concerns directly with decision-makers within the Department of Juvenile Justice. For youth to serve on the council, they must be at least 15 years of age, not have a release date within six months of the meeting and display leadership qualities. Furthermore, youth council members must also show they are working to achieve their educational goals and maintain participation in the behavioral management program. The CYC not only allows youth to voice their concerns but teaches them communication skills, leadership and is meant to increase their self-confidence.

DJJ Medical Director Receives Lifetime Achievement Award

Dr. Michelle Staples-Horne, DJJ's Medical Director, received the 2019 Georgia Juvenile Services Association Harold K. Ables Lifetime Achievement Award. In 1993, Dr. Michelle Staples-Horne was hired by the State of Georgia to develop a health care system for the Department of Juvenile Justice. At that time, DJJ's 20 Regional Youth Detention Centers did not have on-site medical staff and only limited nursing staff was available at DJJ's four Youth Development Campuses. Dental and behavioral health services were also unavailable on-site at DJJ secure facilities.
As a result of Dr. Staples Horne efforts, by 2008 the Federal Department of Justice identified Georgia as the leader in health care among juvenile corrections agencies in the United States. To help preserve Georgia's national standing, Dr. Staples-Horne has maintained long standing partnerships with Emory University Rollins School of Public Health and the Morehouse

School of Medicine to successfully obtain grant awards to support additional services for DJJ youth.
Dr. Staples-Horne has served as President of the Society of Correctional Physicians, as a member of the American Correctional Association (ACA) Health Care Committee, and as a member of the Juvenile Health Committee for the National Commission on Correctional Health Care (NCCHC). She has authored chapters in three books and has been published in medical journals and periodicals including articles on juvenile justice health care issues in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, the Journal of Adolescent Health, Public Health Reports, Juvenile Justice, Corrections Today, CorrDocs, and the SCP Newsletter.
In 2013, Dr. Staples-Horne was the recipient of the 2013 Armond Start Award for Professional Excellence from the Society of Correctional Physicians (SCP). In 2018, she was presented with
