OJD Juvenile Committees

Juvenile Court Programs offers staff support for two of OJD’s substantive advisory committees, the Juvenile Court Improvement Program (JCIP) Advisory Committee and the Juvenile Delinquency Improvement Program (JDIP) Advisory Committee. Substantive advisory committees are identified by the Chief Justice and directly impact the agency’s mission, strategy, or justice campaign commitments, and are assigned justice campaign initiatives. Both committees also serve to raise the profile and priority of juvenile cases in Oregon. Members are appointed by the Chief Justice for two-year, renewable terms.

The JCIP Advisory Committee convenes on a quarterly basis to identify areas in need of improvement, review and revise JCIP goals, collaborate on JCIP projects, and share and discuss child welfare outcome data.
