RULE NO: RULE TITLE
63E-6.003: Admission Criteria

This ensures that once youth are deemed eligible for the program based upon a timely comprehensive evaluation, they will be referred, and later admitted, without the need for the program to perform a second review of the evaluation at the time of admission.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: The rule amendement addresses the timeliness of a comprehensive evaluation needed for admission to a Sheriff’s Training and Respect Program.
