1999 Annual Report

Each year, JJEEP publishes an annual report to describe and assess the year's activities. These annual reports assist JJEEP in providing specific educational program policy findings and conclusions regarding Florida's juvenile justice education programs. The information presented includes descriptions of technical assistance provided and corrective actions required throughout the State. These data provide the opportunity to analyze QA review results according to a variety of program characteristics and enable the specification of facility and student outcomes. A large part of the annual report is dedicated to research. These chapters contain information that is of national relevance in juvenile justice education and describe how Florida's programs are progressing in these areas.
