Body

DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND

The Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) maintains the Pine Grove Youth Conservation Camp (PGYCC) in Amador County. It screens and accepts youths aged 18 and older from other DJJ facilities.

 

Training is provided by CAL Fire and youth are certified to engage in wild land firefighting operations. Fire crews from DJJ camps perform approximately 180,000 hours of fire suppression services in a “normal” year for the people of California.

 

Crews typically work in state and county parks performing stream clearance, wild land fire prevention tasks, and restoration work. During the fire season, youth crews are involved in wildland fire suppression throughout the state of California. Camp crews are also assigned to flood control activities. The major emphasis of the camp programs is to provide youth with employable skills and to develop within them a strong emphasis on solid work habits. In addition, youth receive leadership training within their crew structure.

 

The Probation Department foresees utilizing the PGYCC for appropriate youth at the Juvenile Treatment Center involved in Court Commitments.

 

ALTERNATIVES

If this Agreement is not approved by the Board, there will be no opportunity to send appropriate youth for training and assistance with fire suppression activities.
