Section 13:101-1.1 - Purpose

(a) The purpose of this chapter is to:

1. Establish a disciplinary system and corresponding disciplinary policies that promote prosocial behavior and discourage negative behavior among juveniles in Juvenile Justice Commission facilities, and that provide staff with behavior management tools necessary for maintaining safety and security in the facilities;

2. Establish a comprehensive code of violations that explicitly describes behaviors prohibited in Juvenile Justice Commission facilities, so that proscribed behavior may be known by both juveniles and staff;

3. Establish administrative due process safeguards in the disciplinary process and impartial and fair disciplinary procedures, and by so doing, foster morale among juveniles and staff with regard to the disciplinary process; and

4. Establish a range of authorized sanctions for responding to inappropriate behavior and rules for imposing such sanctions.
