Office of Youth and Community Restoration

The Office of Youth and Community Restoration (OYCR) was established in July 2021 through SB 823 (Chapter 337, Statutes of 2020). OYCR is guiding the transition from state-run youth incarceration to county care by identifying and sharing best practices to help inform rehabilitative and restorative youth support and offering technical assistance to advise those in the space on how to achieve outcomes and system improvements for youth across the justice system. This is done through promotion of trauma responsive, culturally informed, gender honoring, and developmentally appropriate services for youth involved in the juvenile justice system that support the youths’ successful transition into adulthood.
