Siskiyou County JJCC reviews juvenile justice consolidated plan; discussion, no formal approval recorded

Chief Probation Officer Erin Welch presented the Siskiyou County Juvenile Justice Consolidated Plan for its annual review during the council's Sept. 15, 2025 meeting at 805 Juvenile Lane. Attending officials included Sheriff Jeremiah LaRue; Dr. Sarah Collard, Director of Health and Human Services; Susan Cervelli, Deputy Director of Social Services; Karen Pautz, Executive Director of First 5 Siskiyou; Probation Administrative Services Manager Michelle Stewart; and Assistant Chief Probation Officer Stacey Jackson.

Committee members discussed current practices, changes in the community, and suggestions for updates to the consolidated plan. The minutes record "much discussion regarding current practices and changes in the community as well as suggestions for the plan," but they do not indicate that the council took any formal action or adopted revisions at that meeting. The record of action items and votes is silent for this agenda item, so any implementation or formal adoption would require future action by the JJCC or a quorum vote at a subsequent meeting.

The consolidated plan shapes coordination among probation, human services, education and public-safety partners across Siskiyou County. The council set a provisional next meeting date of "on or about September 15, 2026," and did not record further procedural steps or deadlines for finalizing changes to the plan in these minutes.
