Senate Resolution No. by Senator Barrow urges the Office of Juvenile Justice to compile and submit a detailed report to the Senate Committees on Finance and Judiciary B regarding complaints, investigations, and litigation at both secure and non-secure care facilities under its jurisdiction. The resolution highlights the importance of oversight in the juvenile justice system, particularly in light of recent high-profile cases and ongoing concerns about the treatment of juveniles in these facilities. The report is to include specific data from 2020 to 2025, itemized by year, covering various types of complaints such as assault, sexual battery, and rape, as well as the outcomes of investigations and lawsuits.

The resolution mandates that the report be submitted by February 1, 2026, and emphasizes the need for transparency and accountability within the juvenile justice system. Following the submission of the report, the Senate committees may hold public hearings to review the findings and exercise oversight of the Office of Juvenile Justice. Additionally, the resolution establishes that similar reports will be required annually starting in 2026, ensuring ongoing scrutiny of the conditions and operations within juvenile facilities.
