Increasing Effectiveness of Case Plans for Juvenile Probation and Facilities by Utilizing Software Recording Available
If you missed our live presentation reviewing effective case plans for juvenile probation and facilities, you can register to watch it here.
Case and treatment plans are essential in providing effective treatment to youth in detention and on probation. Case Plans provide a set of achievable goals and steps for the youth to accomplish to be successful in completion of their treatment. However, in many justice software systems, case plans are not part of the software system.
Register for this recording to see how incorporating case plans into the software interface can simplify case management functions for both juvenile detention staff and juvenile probation officers.
Additionally, if you work in a specialized program like diversion and drug courts, you can find out how to use development of case plans to assist in determining treatment steps to meet specialized issues—including linking treatment plan goals to groups while also addressing criminogenic needs of youth on probation or in a facility.
During this 30-minute demonstration, you will also see how case plans are developed and connected to youth records, their groups, and notes on individuals in a juvenile justice software system.

Webcast Recording Available: Tracking and Reporting on Incidents, Restraints and Room Confinement with Software
Register for access to this brief 30-minute webinar that will illustrate how RiteTrack simplifies documentation of incident reports by creating a single, comprehensive document that includes all staff reports from multiple users on a youth.
The recording of incident reports, use of restraints and room confinements are some of the most important mandated documentation requirements in a juvenile facility. However, it can also be the most difficult to complete correctly and often requires the most administrative follow up to ensure accuracy.
Check out how RiteTrack documents the use of restraints within any incident report, and how the system can be configured to shows how restraint documentation can be maintained in accordance with a facility’s policy and procedures.
You’ll also see tracking the use of room confinements times in the system in real time—so that staff and administrators know exactly how long a youth is in room confinement and when re-evaluations are needed.
To bring all of this critical information together, RiteTrack employs powerful reporting options. All incident reports, use of restraints and room confinement data are calculable, and the reporting capabilities can generate statistics and graphs. This allows administrators and staff to know what’s happening in the facility, identify trends in the facility, and monitor youth progress and program effectiveness.

Shifting Perspectives: Moving from a Punitive Stance to a Treatment-Based Approach in Juvenile Probation Recap
If you were unable to attend the live broadcast of the Shifting Perspectives: Moving from a Punitive Stance to a Treatment-Based Approach in Juvenile Probation webcast, you can register here to watch a recording.
The recognized best practices used in juvenile probation have changed dramatically over several years. The traditional probation model has shifted from a purely punitive and supervision model to a treatment and supervision model.
Juvenile probation now incorporates newfound best practices, length of probation guidelines, cognitive treatment-based approaches including addressing thinking errors. RiteTrack’s juvenile probation solution incorporates these probation treatment-based approaches into the case management flow of the system.
During this webinar you will see how a robust database solution enables your ability to document and store all treatment operations into one system. We will also examine how to incorporate the following areas into the interface:
- Case Plans
- Specialized dockets (e.g., drug court )
- Treatment groups
- Tracking Incentives
- Risk Assessments
- Dosage Hours
- Probation Timelines
If you are currently using an offense-based system, often the treatment approach needs to be tracked in a different case management system. See how one system can track the day-to-day responsibilities of a probation department in addition to the treatment aspects of probation.
To conclude, we will demonstrate the comprehensive reporting capabilities including standard probation reports but also how it can compile specific treatment-based reporting. RiteTrack’s powerful functionality helps create an inclusive probation program that supports a treatment-based approach.

Getting the First Steps Right in Juvenile Facilities and Probation: Intakes and Risk Assessments Webinar Recording
If you were unable to attend the live webinar showcasing RiteTrack’s intake and risk assessments functionality, you can access a recording here.
Every size of juvenile facility from 10 beds to 100+ beds must follow the same first step when a youth arrives: completing an intake process. Often this intake is accompanied by some type of risk assessment. Juvenile probation departments often utilize these first steps as part of their intake process.
During this webcast you will see the RiteTrack functionality that assists juvenile organizations with intake processes no matter the size or caseload. Unlike other offerings available, this system was designed specifically for juvenile facilities and probation.
If intakes and risk assessments have incorrect information or are incomplete, it complicates the admission process creating extra work for staff and administrators alike. The flexibility of the system enables organizations to complete risk assessments within the software’s interface and can generate an easily digestible summary of the assessment data.
During this session you will see how the system manages:
• New intakes
• Intakes for previously-admitted youth
• Missing intake data identification
• Risk assessments
• Intake and risk assessments reporting
An information and case management system such as this ensures data is accurately entered, easily accessible, and simply reported on.

Making Data-Driven Decisions in Juvenile Justice Agencies Webinar Recording
If you weren’t able to attend the live webcast of Making Data-Driven Decisions in Juvenile Justice Agencies, you can register to watch the recording here.
Today organizations have more data available to them than ever before. Yet, few organizations truly understand how to harness this data and turn it into information and knowledge. Meanwhile, collecting reliable data in a juvenile justice organization may be cumbersome and time consuming.
However, this data is imperative because it alerts an organization to trends, issues, and successes.
During this webinar, we demonstrated how a comprehensive software system designed specifically for juvenile case management provides critical information through the day-to-day operations of an organization and compiling data into comprehensive reports.
Standard system reporting includes populations reports, yearly statistical comparisons, admission statistics, JDAI/PREA/ACA/OJJDP, and seclusion or restraint incidents.
We also looked at our one-of-a-kind interface with Performance-based Standards (PbS) reporting system.
To wrap up we examined how to utilize juvenile-specific data in making decisions about the youth and the operations of your organization.
In juvenile justice it is imperative to make decisions based on facts not beliefs, and data collection through a centralized database system is a reliable way to ensure accurate data.
Handel IT is the creator of RiteTrack, a web-based information management software used by human services programs throughout the country. It provides the primary means for thousands of caseworkers, administrators, and other professionals to manage their clients and caseloads.
