WHO WE SERVE? Children in state custody –Department of Human Services (Division of Family and Children Services) –Department of Juvenile Justice –Privately placed children Annually, facilities serve –RBWO - –PRTF -

AVERAGE LENGTHS OF STAY –Children and adolescents are in PRTF an average of 120 days –RBWO children have an average lengths of stay of ___

TYPES OF CHILDREN Children who are neglected, unruly, delinquent or have behavioral health issues Children who have numerous foster care family placements prior to their placement with a facility Varying ages by facility, up to age 21 for some Children with numerous learning issues, generally two grades behind their peers

HOW ARE WE CURRENTLY FUNDED? Through "QBE" with money paid to "LEAs" Through a non-quality basic education formula grant, "SB 618 grant" Title I dollars Private donations

WHAT ARE THE PROBLEMS? Residential treatment facilities are not funded sufficiently to meet educational instruction costs of children Facilities do not have their own "QBE" weight Children do not always arrive with an "IEP" SB 618 grants are not sufficient to fund a the local share of the total cost of education and can be cut at any time SB 618 grants are not based on actual costs, and formula is not transparent and has changed annually Student counts occur twice per year and do not capture transient nature of students

OUR IDEAS FOR SOLUTIONS: Create a new category and appropriate weight in "QBE" to more closely align with these children's needs Address "IEP" requirement so that a determination of a child's need for placement in a residential treatment facility equates to an IEP Sufficiently fund SB 618 "grants" program to cover the full local share of the cost of education *DOE proposed moving facilities to the "SED" program budget category, but programs in this category are not eligible for Title I and the level of funding could remain inadeqaute
