AREA OFFICES
To administer intake, probation, and aftercare for delinquent youth, State was divided into five areas with local field offices serving each county and Baltimore City. Youths who broke law or exhibited uncontrollable behavior entered juvenile justice system through these local offices.
Young people were referred to a local office of juvenile justice by law enforcement agencies, other government agencies, parents, or concerned citizens. Following referral, an intake officer assessed youth and determined most appropriate course of action. Intake officer could recommend formal court proceedings; place minor on voluntary informal supervision for up to 90 days; dismiss youth with a warning; or disapprove a case for insufficient evidence.
Through intake services, local area office decided for each minor whether court proceedings were appropriate. Local area office also recommended to court whether adjudicated delinquents should be placed on probation, in a day program, or committed to a residential facility. During probation and throughout youth's stay at a residential facility, local area office maintained contact with a juvenile's case manager. Minors were monitored in a similar fashion after their release.
