Demonstration sites were established in five jurisdictions; under guidance from the National Office for Social Responsibility (NOSR), the juvenile court responsible for probation services converted selected service to the private sector by preparing a realistic, comprehensive transfer plan; forming a public-private partnership with businesses and professional communities; assessing the agency's organizational structure, procedures, and services; identifying the juvenile probation functions most suited to privatization; selecting a contractor; implementing the conversion; and establishing a monitoring and evaluation process. All five sites -- Salt Lake City, Cleveland, Kenosha County (Wisconsin), Oklahoma City, and San Francisco -- found that some functions of juvenile probation departments can be improved by privatization and that private-public partnerships can provide new ideas and resources. OJJDP plans to expand the effort to State juvenile corrections agencies; NOSR is identifying States that are interested in private sector involvement in public policy and program planning.
