His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically.

Some are being rebuilt; El Dorado County is making plans to build a new facility in Placerville. But that will take years, so in the meantime, probation departments are making small shifts to make the current buildings more livable and less prison-like. And they’re focusing on what Richart sees as the most important element: staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes, facilities matter, but what matters tenfold are the staff. If you see somebody in a certain way, you'll tend to treat them that way. And if you tend to treat them that way, they will tend to behave that way,” he said, adding that while the facility is a “limiting factor ... it is certainly not something that prevents my staff from actually doing the type of family-based work that we've been doing for the last decade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means staff here act more like social workers than cops; they build trust with the youth. The facility has been painted and decorated to resemble a school more than a prison. And young people here spend little time in their rooms; instead they are together going to school, or participating in therapy, family visits or other programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But 21-year-old Reid Butler’s sentence also represents one of the challenges for counties: State law now allows youth to stay in the juvenile system up to age 26. That means you could have 12- and 13-year-olds serving alongside young adults with incredibly different needs and experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>'Times have changed'\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Down in San Mateo County, probation leaders are grappling with many of the same issues, and are working to create better vocational and educational spaces so that when a 26-year-old is released, they’re ready to get a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jehan Clark is superintendent for the county’s probation agency. As she walks around San Mateo’s facility, she points to a large courtyard anchored by a lawn and a track. Along the side are chickens that youth take care of, as well as garden boxes where they grow food that they'll later help cook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark said all this makes the common spaces here feel more like a campus than a prison — and that the kids are kept productive and busy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These kids are barely in their rooms,” she said. “They're in school all day. If they graduate or are not in school, they're doing some type of work. After school they have exercise, which we call our large muscle activity, and then they have dinner, shower, and then they're in programming.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But inside the housing unit, like in El Dorado County, things look more like a traditional prison. That is, until you enter a large room painted a soothing blue and covered in bright renditions of sea creatures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is what we call the reef ... [it's] our multisensory deescalation room. So for youth who have more, you know, mental health issues, maybe they're getting some bad news, they just need to kind of calm themselves, kind of stabilize,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11924055\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11924055\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium.jpg\" alt=\"woman stands inside room painted to look like the inside of an aquarium\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1362\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-800x568.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-1020x724.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-160x114.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-1536x1090.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jehan Clark, institutions superintendent for San Mateo County Probation, stands in the 'multisensory deescalation room' at juvenile hall. \u003ccite>(Marisa Lagos/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Clark, who’s been working in this field for decades, says this room illustrates the shift in philosophy from one that emphasized the institutionalization of young people. Now, juvenile probation officials are trying to create environments that mimic home life so kids don’t have to learn how to act when they’re released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Times have changed. Things are a lot different. And so, there is no room for confinement. You know, if a youth has an issue, they kind of can take a time-out, but then they come right back out,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That also means probation agencies are bringing families into youths’ treatment, since often the problems that lead young people to commit crimes start at home. And in Fresno County in the Central Valley, it will also mean more community-based programs so young people aren’t necessarily locked up in juvenile hall for their entire sentence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='incarceration']Still, there are worries. This shift has happened quickly. Most of these facilities weren’t meant to house young people for years at a time. And for all its problems, DJJ did have expertise treating the small number of incredibly high-needs young people, such as those who committed sex offenses and arson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So in Fresno, Probation Chief Kirk Haynes is partnering with other counties to create those specialized programs. He’s retrofitting parts of the facility so they can be used for treatment. But he’s frustrated that state leaders are forcing counties to move so quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've not had a lot of time and frankly have not had a lot of resources to be able to build up, you know, to have our facilities ready to have all these things done,” he said. The next big challenge, Haynes said, will be bringing Fresno’s youths home from DJJ when it closes next summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But given all of the challenges that have come along with it, I think at the end of the day and in the long run, we're ready now and we're going to be even better as the years go by,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under state law, Haynes and others have no choice but to try. They’re getting some help from Sacramento — the state budget includes $100 million this year to help make changes to county facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under the law mandating DJJ’s closure, each county had to come up with a detailed proposal outlining how they plan to handle the changes, including a requirement that they do have “secure” or locked facility options. The legislation also created a new state-level ombudsman for youth in the juvenile justice system and a new Office of Youth and Community Restoration that is responsible for reviewing, evaluating and overseeing county implementation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In El Dorado County, Mario Guerrero was one of the community members on the local committee. He’s a program manager at the nonprofit Child Advocates of El Dorado County and has worked in youth services here in his hometown county for 20 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guerrero said he’s generally supportive of how the probation department is running juvenile justice here. But he worries about whether communities around the state will step up to help, or stand in the way. He noted that in El Dorado County, Chief Richart’s proposal to build a regional facility to house and treat sex offenders from several counties was killed by the local board of supervisors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guerrero said in order for young people to actually be rehabilitated, it’s going to take a village.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For those who might be a little bit skeptical or unaware, we understand those fears,” he said. “But the reality is these kids are really amazing kids. They have a lot of potential in life and they just need a lot more guidance and support to be steered in the right direction. But most of them are really, really gifted and amazing kids that just need a little bit of love to find their way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"The remaking of California's juvenile justice system will culminate next summer in the closure of the Division of Juvenile Justice — a big change that will require county probation chiefs to house and treat all justice system-affected youth.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1661881002,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":37,"wordCount":1976},"headData":{"title":"As California Remakes Its Juvenile Justice System, Counties Take the Lead on Rehabilitation | KQED","description":"The remaking of California's juvenile justice system will culminate next summer in the closure of the Division of Juvenile Justice — a big change that will require county probation chiefs to house and treat all justice system-affected youth.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":""},"disqusIdentifier":"11924009 https://ww2.kqed.org/news/?p=11924009","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2022/08/30/as-california-remakes-its-juvenile-justice-system-counties-take-the-lead-on-rehabilitation/","disqusTitle":"As California Remakes Its Juvenile Justice System, Counties Take the Lead on Rehabilitation","audioUrl":"https://traffic.omny.fm/d/clips/0af137ef-751e-4b19-a055-aaef00d2d578/ffca7e9f-6831-41c5-bcaf-aaef00f5a073/3dca9ef5-227a-48f6-b6fb-af000106b064/audio.mp3","excludeFromSiteSearch":"Include","path":"/news/11924009/as-california-remakes-its-juvenile-justice-system-counties-take-the-lead-on-rehabilitation","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__dropcapShortcode__dropcap\">T\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>wenty-one-year-old Reid Butler spent about a year in one of California’s state youth prisons before officials in his home county convinced a court to let him serve his sentence in a county juvenile hall.

And if you tend to treat them that way, they will tend to behave that way,” he said, adding that while the facility is a “limiting factor ... it is certainly not something that prevents my staff from actually doing the type of family-based work that we've been doing for the last decade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That means staff here act more like social workers than cops; they build trust with the youth. The facility has been painted and decorated to resemble a school more than a prison. And young people here spend little time in their rooms; instead they are together going to school, or participating in therapy, family visits or other programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But 21-year-old Reid Butler’s sentence also represents one of the challenges for counties: State law now allows youth to stay in the juvenile system up to age 26. That means you could have 12- and 13-year-olds serving alongside young adults with incredibly different needs and experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>'Times have changed'\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Down in San Mateo County, probation leaders are grappling with many of the same issues, and are working to create better vocational and educational spaces so that when a 26-year-old is released, they’re ready to get a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jehan Clark is superintendent for the county’s probation agency. As she walks around San Mateo’s facility, she points to a large courtyard anchored by a lawn and a track. Along the side are chickens that youth take care of, as well as garden boxes where they grow food that they'll later help cook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark said all this makes the common spaces here feel more like a campus than a prison — and that the kids are kept productive and busy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These kids are barely in their rooms,” she said. “They're in school all day. If they graduate or are not in school, they're doing some type of work. After school they have exercise, which we call our large muscle activity, and then they have dinner, shower, and then they're in programming.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But inside the housing unit, like in El Dorado County, things look more like a traditional prison. That is, until you enter a large room painted a soothing blue and covered in bright renditions of sea creatures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is what we call the reef ... [it's] our multisensory deescalation room. So for youth who have more, you know, mental health issues, maybe they're getting some bad news, they just need to kind of calm themselves, kind of stabilize,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11924055\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11924055\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium.jpg\" alt=\"woman stands inside room painted to look like the inside of an aquarium\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1362\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-800x568.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-1020x724.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-160x114.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/ClarkAquarium-1536x1090.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jehan Clark, institutions superintendent for San Mateo County Probation, stands in the 'multisensory deescalation room' at juvenile hall. \u003ccite>(Marisa Lagos/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Clark, who’s been working in this field for decades, says this room illustrates the shift in philosophy from one that emphasized the institutionalization of young people. Now, juvenile probation officials are trying to create environments that mimic home life so kids don’t have to learn how to act when they’re released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Times have changed. Things are a lot different. And so, there is no room for confinement. You know, if a youth has an issue, they kind of can take a time-out, but then they come right back out,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That also means probation agencies are bringing families into youths’ treatment, since often the problems that lead young people to commit crimes start at home. And in Fresno County in the Central Valley, it will also mean more community-based programs so young people aren’t necessarily locked up in juvenile hall for their entire sentence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"label":"Related Coverage ","tag":"incarceration"},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>Still, there are worries. This shift has happened quickly. Most of these facilities weren’t meant to house young people for years at a time. And for all its problems, DJJ did have expertise treating the small number of incredibly high-needs young people, such as those who committed sex offenses and arson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So in Fresno, Probation Chief Kirk Haynes is partnering with other counties to create those specialized programs. He’s retrofitting parts of the facility so they can be used for treatment. But he’s frustrated that state leaders are forcing counties to move so quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've not had a lot of time and frankly have not had a lot of resources to be able to build up, you know, to have our facilities ready to have all these things done,” he said. The next big challenge, Haynes said, will be bringing Fresno’s youths home from DJJ when it closes next summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But given all of the challenges that have come along with it, I think at the end of the day and in the long run, we're ready now and we're going to be even better as the years go by,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under state law, Haynes and others have no choice but to try. They’re getting some help from Sacramento — the state budget includes $100 million this year to help make changes to county facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under the law mandating DJJ’s closure, each county had to come up with a detailed proposal outlining how they plan to handle the changes, including a requirement that they do have “secure” or locked facility options. The legislation also created a new state-level ombudsman for youth in the juvenile justice system and a new Office of Youth and Community Restoration that is responsible for reviewing, evaluating and overseeing county implementation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In El Dorado County, Mario Guerrero was one of the community members on the local committee. He’s a program manager at the nonprofit Child Advocates of El Dorado County and has worked in youth services here in his hometown county for 20 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guerrero said he’s generally supportive of how the probation department is running juvenile justice here. But he worries about whether communities around the state will step up to help, or stand in the way. He noted that in El Dorado County, Chief Richart’s proposal to build a regional facility to house and treat sex offenders from several counties was killed by the local board of supervisors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guerrero said in order for young people to actually be rehabilitated, it’s going to take a village.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For those who might be a little bit skeptical or unaware, we understand those fears,” he said. “But the reality is these kids are really amazing kids. They have a lot of potential in life and they just need a lot more guidance and support to be steered in the right direction. But most of them are really, really gifted and amazing kids that just need a little bit of love to find their way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11924009/as-california-remakes-its-juvenile-justice-system-counties-take-the-lead-on-rehabilitation","authors":["3239"],"programs":["news_72"],"categories":["news_6188","news_8"],"tags":["news_18538","news_25064","news_31534","news_2842","news_1107","news_19644","news_17968","news_1471","news_98"],"featImg":"news_11924054","label":"news_72"},"news_11907741":{"type":"posts","id":"news_11907741","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"11907741","score":null,"sort":[1646958007000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"newsom-unions-negotiate-50k-bonuses-for-juvenile-prison-workers-to-stay-until-2023","title":"Newsom, Unions Negotiate $50K Bonuses for Juvenile Prison Workers to Stay Until 2023","publishDate":1646958007,"format":"standard","headTitle":"KQED News","labelTerm":{},"content":"\u003cp>As the state prepares to close its youth prisons, workers for the Division of Juvenile Justice could receive up to $50,000 bonuses to stay on the job until then, CalMatters has learned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If approved, the bonus appears to be among the largest offered by the state to retain a group of employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov.

Calls for change have become louder over the past two decades as youth crime in California plummeted by 80%, said Renee Menart, policy analyst and advocate at the Center on Criminal and Juvenile Justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That drop in population means that, on average, California is now spending a staggering $316,000 a year on each young person at DJJ, said Menart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"DJJ has gone through cycles of abuse and superficial reforms for decades,\" she said. \"We've been a proponent for its closure because the system has repeatedly been unable to address its inherent flaws.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those flaws, Menart said, include moving young people far away from their families and communities, and into an institutional setting that sets them up for failure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"DJJ has long failed young people and their home communities, so we're excited to see an opportunity to bring them closer to home and in smaller settings,\" she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, all this begs the questions: Where will they go?

The Board of Supervisors here voted to shutter the lockup by the end of 2021 — meaning the county needs to figure out how it will securely house young people who get into trouble, and what alternatives to incarceration they can create.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The question becomes now: (not) what \u003cem>don't\u003c/em> we do, but what \u003cem>do\u003c/em> we do?
