1. How is it possible to have an empowered workforce, while at the same time mandating that all employees follow the same established policies and procedures? If you do not think it is possible to do so, please detail why it is not?

2. Do you feel that the juvenile justice system/courts does an adequate job in addressing those areas?

Understanding that juveniles do suffer from various aspects of trauma, addiction or mental disorders, how much do you purport that goes into dispositions (sentencing). Further, if such areas are identified, should juveniles be then treated differently? Aren't adult offenders who are deemed mentally disabled (depending on disorder/medication/tx, etc.) viewed differently in the eyes of the court?

What is your analysis in how the authors Strengthening Our Future: Key Elements to Developing a Trauma-Informed Diversion Program for Youth with Behavioral Health Conditions (modelsforchange.net) conveyed mental health, trauma, etc. in reference to juvenile delinquency? Do you purport that even with some trauma, other aspects contribute to delinquency?
