Matters not posted: Matters not on the posted agenda to be placed on the agenda for discussion and action at a future meeting of the CESS.

Ensuring All Eligible Youth are Screened for the Pine Grove Youth Conservation Camp When Requested Recommendation as submitted by Supervisor Hahn: Direct the Probation Department to do the following: When a judge requests that a youth be “pre-screened” during the pre-disposition process for eligibility to participate in the Pine Grove Youth Conservation Camp (Pine Grove), complete the pre-screening form as laid out in the Pine Grove policies and procedures and submit it to the judge within 14 days of receiving the request; After a youth’s transfer hearing that results in the judge determining that the youth will stay in juvenile jurisdiction, initiate the full screening process for Pine Grove as soon as requested by an attorney or judge and before the youth’s sentencing hearing while they are still in the pre-disposition facility/unit. This screening process should include, but not be limited to: Ensuring any medical documentation of psychiatric medications and asthma is accurate and up-to-date; Submitting required documentation to Pine Grove in a timely manner; and Ensuring the Pine Grove interview is conducted in a timely manner; Identify a point person at the Barry J. Nidorf Pre-Disposition Secure Youth Treatment Facility and a point person at Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall to communicate with Pine Grove regarding all pre-screening and screening of youth in their respective facilities. These individuals shall, at a minimum, be responsible for ensuring that pre-screening and screening requests get completed and submitted on time; Collaborate with Pine Grove to conduct quarterly presentations at both Barry J. Nidorf and Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall about the Pine Grove program and its eligibility requirements to both incarcerated youth and Probation employees; and Report back to the Board of Supervisors in writing in 30 and 90 days on the above. Direct the Office of the Public Defender and Alternate Public Defender to do the following: Conduct an internal education campaign for juvenile defense lawyers on the eligibility criteria for Pine Grove Youth Conservation Camp, the pre-screening process for pre-disposition youth, and the full screening process for post-disposition youth or youth who have completed their transfer hearing but are pre-disposition and awaiting their official juvenile sentencing hearing; Encourage juvenile attorneys to request that the court order a full Pine Grove screening at the conclusion of a youth’s transfer hearing if the youth is remaining in juvenile jurisdiction; and Report back to the Board of Supervisors in writing in 60 days on the above.

Supporting the 988 LGBTQ+ Youth Access Act of 2025 Recommendation as submitted by Supervisor Hahn: Direct the Chief Executive Office’s Legislative Affairs and Intergovernmental Relations branch to support S. 2826 and H.R. 5434, the 988 LGBTQ+ Youth Access Act of 2025, and similar measures.

Supporting the Polluters Pay Climate Superfund Act of 2025 Recommendation as submitted by Supervisor Hahn: Direct the Chief Executive Office Legislative Affairs and Intergovernmental Relations branch to support legislation that would require the largest oil and gas companies doing business in the state to pay their fair share of the damages caused by planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions, assess a cost recovery demand against responsible parties for the damages caused by fossil fuels emissions, and direct those funds to be reinvested into California communities to mitigate the impacts of climate change.

Ensuring Youth at Los Padrinos Have Equal Access to the Facility Amenities and Programs Recommendation as submitted by Supervisor Hahn: Direct the Chief Probation Officer, in collaboration with the Director of the Department of Parks and Recreation and the Director of Los Angeles County Library, to report back to the Board, in writing, in 60 days with an analysis on how to ensure that all youth at Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall can access the resources and amenities on the facilities, with a specific focus on access to the pool and the library. The analysis should include, but not be limited to: A feasibility analysis and operational plan for allowing youth in units R/S to be transported to the Los Padrinos Library if they are interested, including staffing needs (both Probation and Library staff), the cadence with which youth would be allowed to visit the library, and whether the library hours should be extended in order to allow youth to visit it regularly; and A feasibility analysis and operational plan for allowing all youth, including youth in units R/S, to be able to use the pool regularly during the warmer months, including staffing needs - both Probation officers who would transport youth, and Department of Parks and Recreation lifeguards who would guard the pool - as well as infrastructure needs, such as ensuring the pool is warm enough and safe to use.

Authorize Negotiations for an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement for the Potential Development of a Portion of the Rancho Los Amigos South Campus Recommendation as submitted by Supervisor Hahn: Find that the proposed action is not a project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the action is excluded from the definition of a project by Section 15378(b) of the State CEQA guidelines. The proposed action is an administrative activity of government which will not result in direct or indirect physical change to the environment. The actions herein do not commit the County to any activity that would be a project under CEQA. The Chief Executive Office will return to the Board to recommend appropriate environmental findings under CEQA, should a project be recommended. Authorize and delegate authority to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), or designee, to negotiate and execute, and if necessary amend, extend, or terminate an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with the City of Downey, approved as to form by County Counsel, for an initial twelve month term, and to extend the term of the ENA for a maximum of up to four (4) additional six-month ENA extension periods, if needed in order to negotiate the potential Rancho Los Amigos South Campus Project, collect deposits and fees in connection with the terms of the ENA, administer the expenses and accounting associated with the ENA, and to execute any and all related or ancillary documents or amendments to the ENA necessary to effectuate the action authorized hereby.

Pursuing a Statewide and Local Los Angeles County Pilot for A Specialized “Press 3” Option of 988 for LGBTQ+ Youth Callers Recommendation as submitted by Supervisor Hahn: Direct the Department of Mental Health (DMH) to develop a proposal for a local “Press 3” pilot program for Los Angeles County answered by a crisis-intervention service provider and to submit the proposal to the California Health and Human Services Agency (CalHHS). The proposal should include, but not be limited to, the following: Requesting approval from the Substance and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to allow Los Angeles County to fund and implement a “Press 3 Option” specifically for callers, and potentially chatters and texters, located in Los Angeles County, and to authorize Vibrant to work with DMH to create a unique phone tree for Los Angeles County that includes the “Press 3 Option”; Initiating a procurement to select contracted service provider/s to provide specialized LGBTQ+ youth counseling services over the phone via the “Press 3” option; Creating a budget for the pilot program and identifying potential sources of funding; and Developing a timeline for implementation of the pilot program, if approved by CalHH S and SAMHSA. Direct the Chief Executive Office’s Legislative Affairs and Intergovernmental Relations branch to co-sponsor or support state legislation that would implement a statewide “Press 3 Option” for California that is consistent with Los Angeles County’s local “Press 3 Option” proposal.
