MENTAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT COMPETENCY RESTORATION PROGRAM STATISTICS

2012

53

Mental Health Department Competency Restoration Program Statistics, 2012

Program Details:

Competency Findings• Resolved the competency issue for 6 youths. • 3 out of the 6 were found to be restored, and

moved on to face their charges in court.• Of these 3 youth, 2 had their cases

dismissed. • In the remaining case, MHD found the

youth unrestorable, but the judge never ruled to accept the finding because the youth picked up adult charges (the juvenile case was reportedly put on hold).

• The program officially started on January 3, 2012.

• Youth ages ranged from 12 to 17 at the time of the referral, with the median age of 14.

• 4 referrals processed in 2011, prior to the program opening, and 16 more in 2012.

• Provided some level of services to 15 different youths over the course of the year in 2012.

• As of Dec. 31, 2012, the waiting list had 5 youths.
