Addressing the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Needs of Juvenile Justice Involved Youth Through Systems of Care
This NDTAC Webinar explored the impact of mental health issues and substance abuse on the lives of young people within the juvenile justice and child welfare systems, as well as on the lives of youth at risk of delinquency and/or academic failure.
Annual Counts: Understanding the Process and Its Implications
The Annual Count—known by many names, including the October Count, the Child Survey, and the Annual Child Count Survey—is a critical part of the Title I funding process. It is the yearly process by which States submit to the U.S. Department of Education (ED) counts of children and youth who are neglected or delinquent. ED uses this information to generate State allocations for the Title I, Part D, program. During this Webinar, Stephanie Lampron, Deputy Director of NDTAC, and Greta Colombi, Research Analyst, covered the purpose of the Annual Count, who is eligible to be counted, how the Annual Count relates to other reporting requirements from ED, and the difference in the count procedures and protocols between State agencies (Subpart 1) and local agencies (Subpart 2).
