Sacramento County JJCC Realignment Subcommittee - Valley Oak Youth Academy (VOYA)

In September 2020, Senate Bill 823 was signed into law. The signing of this bill initiates the closure of the California Department of Rehabilitation Division​ of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) and shifts those resources to counties to supervise and deliver services to youth who are in conflict with the law. Senate Bill 823 tasks each county with the responsibility of creating a local DJJ Realignment Plan.

The Sacramento County Juvenile​ Justice Coordinating Council (JJCC)​ is responsible for establishing the JJCC Realignment Subcommittee, which is tasked with the development of Sacramento County's SB 823 DJJ Realignment Plan to create the Valley Oak Youth Academy (VOYA) (per Welfare and Institutions Code 1995).
