Comprehensive Strategy Sub-Committees <br /> • Data Collection and Analysis Workgroup <br /> The primary tasks of the Data Collection and Analysis Workgroup are: (1) <br /> developing a statistical and demographic data profile of the community, (2) <br /> conducting an analysis of data sources and accessibility, and (3) analyzing <br /> the data to identify priorities and key issues to be addressed by other work <br /> groups. <br /> • Resource Assessment Workgroup <br /> The resource assessment workgroup is responsible for collecting <br /> information about existing prevention and graduated sanction programs. <br /> The workgroup will identify key issues and gaps related to the programs <br /> and make recommendations for addressing the gaps and issues. <br /> • Objective Decisionmaking Workgroup <br /> The role of the objective decisionmaking workgroup is to map the current <br /> juvenile justice system to identify the critical decision points and document <br /> the current decisionmaking processes (objective, multidisciplinary teams, <br /> subjective recommendations, staff expertise, etc.) used at each decision <br /> point.
