General Update
Please see the website of the Pre-Adolescent Services Task Force in the Colorado Department of Human Services regarding House Bill 2022-1131 (Reduce Justice-involvement For Young Children). The bill "required the Colorado Department of Human Services to create a 32-member task force to examine potential gaps in services for juveniles who are 10-12 years of age, should the minimum age of prosecution of juveniles increase from 10 to 13. The task force will identify how the identified services can be delivered outside the juvenile justice system and make recommendations for funding those services."
