Report Summary
- Over the past five fiscal years, the number of juveniles incompetent to proceed has fluctuated somewhat. Juveniles in community competency services received fewer services per month, which reduced overall costs. The time juveniles spend in the forensic facility has decreased.
- Since Fiscal Year 2006-07, adult incompetent to proceed cases have leveled off. Adult community competency costs have remained relatively stable, while the costs associated with restoring competency for adults in secure forensic facilities have increased.
