Colorado Revised Statutes Title 19. Children's Code § 19-2.5-1402. Juvenile community review board

(4)(a) Prior to placement of a juvenile in a residential community placement, the juvenile community review board shall review the juvenile's case file. It is the responsibility of the department of human services to provide accurate information regarding the juvenile and the proposed placement to the juvenile community review board. The information must include, but not be limited to, a history of delinquent adjudications, a social history, an educational history, a mental health treatment history, a drug and alcohol treatment history, and a summary of institutional progress. Each juvenile case referred to the board must be reviewed within fourteen days from the date the referral is received.

(b) The board shall review the juvenile's case file and make a decision regarding residential community placement, taking into consideration the results of a validated risk and needs assessment adopted pursuant to section 24-33.5-2402(1), as it existed prior to its repeal in 2022, by the department of human services, the criteria established by the juvenile community review board based on the interests of the community, and guidance established by the department of human services in consultation with the committee on juvenile justice reform established pursuant to section 24-33.5-2401, as it existed prior to its repeal in 2022. The criteria must be based upon researched factors that have been demonstrated to be correlative to risk to the community.

(c) All names, addresses, and information regarding a juvenile case reviewed by the juvenile community review board are confidential and not disclosed except to the board or its designees, the Colorado bureau of investigation, and any law enforcement agency, without express written permission of the juvenile and the legal custodian.
