and legislative/policy/systems issues workgroups. Based on the recommendations and issues identified by these groups, the planning, monitoring, and evaluation workgroup will develop a cohesive 5-year comprehensive strategy plan and report. The report will include a prioritized set of recommendations, specific goals and outcomes to measure success, and a proposed timeline for implementing the prioritized recommendations. • Outreach/Communication//Media Workgroup The outreach/communication/media (external relations) workgroup is responsible for (a) engaging community leaders and stakeholders (including youth) in the process, (b) recruiting and training new members to the planning board, (c) "selling" the CS to the greater community, and (d) educating and updating community leaders, stakeholders, and the public about the work of the planning board. The workgroup will work with the other workgroups to prepare and disseminate all press releases, draft and final documents, and other communications with the public. • Youth Involvement Workgroup The Youth involvement workgroup is made up of high school freshmen, sophomore, junior, and senior students from various schools in Hawaii County. Their goal is to articulate the youth perspective regarding the juvenile justice system. This is accomplished through holding focus groups on the issues impacting today's youths and conducting surveys to obtain the opinions of their peers. Recommendations are then made by the workgroup on how the system can be improved and are incorporated into the comprehensive strategic plan.
