ONCERNING ENHANCED SUPPORTS FOR YOUTH WHO ARE IN DETENTION ,
AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
SECTION 1. Legislative declaration. (1) The general assembly
finds and declares that:
(a) Across the state, there is a need for community-based services
and supports spanning the youth services continuum that help to serve
youth, including those with high mental health needs, significant substance
abuse concerns, or other unmet needs. The state of Colorado must ensure
adequate resources to provide community services and supports that could
safely keep youth in the home or place youth who are unable to return home
in appropriate therapeutic out-of-home placements.
NOTE: This bill has been prepared for the signatures of the appropriate legislative
officers and the Governor. To determine whether the Governor has signed the bill
or taken other action on it, please consult the legislative status sheet, the legislative
history, or the Session Laws.

Capital letters or bold & italic numbers indicate new material added to existing law; dashes
through words or numbers indicate deletions from existing law and such material is not part of
the act. (b) Additional investment in alternatives to incarceration is
necessary to develop and expand inpatient beds available to treat youth with
substance use disorders; residential treatment programs for youth with
mental health needs; community-based mental health services for children
and families; and other community-based, culturally relevant,
developmentally appropriate services, including mentorship programs for
youth;
(c) The general assembly recognized the need for more inpatient
treatment beds for adolescents with substance use disorders in section
27-80-127, Colorado Revised Statutes, and required the behavioral health
administration to create, develop, or contract for additional substance use
treatment beds for youth;
(d) The general assembly further recognized the need to eliminate
barriers to youth moving into the least restrictive placements by establishing
the high-risk families cash fund in section 27-80-123, Colorado Revised
Statutes, to better serve children and youth at risk of entering, or who are
involved in, the juvenile justice system, and by providing funding for a
youth neuro-psych facility, psychiatric residential treatment programs, and
qualified residential treatment programs in section 27-90-112, Colorado
Revised Statutes;
(e) A lack of appropriate out-of-home, non-secure, specialized
placements for youth is causing some youth who could otherwise be placed
in lieu of detention to be detained in a division of youth services youth
detention center for longer than if the placements were available;
(f) The Colorado youth detention continuum (CYDC) advisory
board has developed new metrics to determine current needs related to
youth detention that can help interested parties understand how many youth
are currently held in secure detention until a licensed residential treatment
option accepts the youth into their milieu and identify creative solutions that
are available to manage the juvenile detention bed cap to best serve
Colorado youth; and
(g) Guardians ad litem provide critical services for youth involved
with the juvenile justice system, including providing advocacy and
representation in court settings for detained youth.
PAGE 2-HOUSE BILL 23-1307 (2) Therefore, the general assembly declares that support is needed
for the department of human services to provide incentives to
community-based residential providers to serve youth exiting secure
detention and to build additional capacity for community-based, culturally
relevant, developmentally appropriate services, including prevention,
intervention, and mentorship programs, that can be offered to youth being
held in secure detention and as they exit into the community.
(3) The general assembly further finds that it is beneficial for the
department of human services to track necessary metrics to understand the
need for funds for services and placements on an ongoing basis and support
the CYDC advisory board in recommending ways to meet this need and
manage the current juvenile detention bed cap.
