Bernalillo County, NM, JDAI Model Site
Reducing the detention population by 44 percent. Bernalillo County achieved this outcome by methodically reorganizing its resources, budget and staff to focus on community-based treatment and innovative policies that cost taxpayers less money. Then the Bernalillo County Juvenile Detention Center reassigned staff to front-end services and closed secure units, saving the county hundreds of thousands of dollars. Bernalillo County has also seen a 27 percent decline in juvenile arrests for serious violent offenses. Adhering to JDAI concepts has also allowed the State of New Mexico's Children, Youth and Families Department to close its maximum-security facility in 2003. Some of the cost savings went into acquiring portable buildings outside the detention center’s razor-wire fence to house an alternative public school, a community-custody program, a day treatment program and a mental health clinic.
