SHOCAP is based on the premises and principles of the Integrated Criminal Apprehension Program (ICAP). SHOCAP can increase the quality and relevance of information provided to juvenile justice and criminal justice authorities and enables them to focus additional attention on juveniles who repeatedly commit serious crimes. Particular emphasis is placed on providing relevant and complete case information to result in more informed sentences. SHOCAP expands the interagency model established in 1983 to include more information sharing for use in planning, managing, and delivering services more effectively. Issues concerning school involvement in SHOCAP include the identification of proper school assignments for serious habitual offenders, sharing of information about disciplinary violations with other agencies, the separation of designated habituals by school assignment, and the development of procedures for notifying principals, teachers, and the public about the special needs of serious habitual offenders.
