A Washington state legislative committee work session on juvenile rehabilitation, county juvenile-court services, and early learning policy. Agency and community witnesses described capacity strain at secure juvenile facilities, program and family-connection gaps reported by youth advocates, county-level diversion and detention practices, and recent budget reductions affecting state pre-K and childcare programs. Lawmakers asked for follow-ups on telehealth, special-education supports, and plans for additional mental-health capacity.
