The Florida Department of Juvenile Justice has posted two policies for review and comment on MyFlorida.com at: http:// www.djj.state.fl.us/policies_procedures/policyreview.html.
Utilization of Information Technology Access Permissions and Resources (FDJJ 1235) establishes standards for the utilization of the Department’s Information Technology (IT) resources and access permissions to guard against unauthorized use and abuse.
Institutional Review Board (IRB) Research Proposal Review Process (FDJJ – 1609.01) revises an existing policy that establishes oversight and research protocols through the establishment of Institutional Review Board to protect youth involved with DJJ from risks due to research studies.
These policies are posted for a single 20 working day review and comment period, with the closure date for submission of comments on each policy of October 2, 2008. Responses to comments received will be posted during the review period to the extent possible, but no later than 10 working days after the end of the review period on the above Website.
