The decrease since 1973 can possibly be attributed to the Youth Diversion Project and the Protective Services 1
Department.
"lith the help of these two ~n'ogr'am~~ it vJas anticipated that the nwnb~r of \~eferra.ls \'JI)uld continue to

For 1975, the most frequent reasons for referral were Burglary, Shoplifting, and Dependency. Together 2
these charges account for nearly 33 per cent of all the referrals.
As previously seen in 1974, white f~~ales wp.re referred mainly for Dependency (19.9%), Shoplifting (16.3%)~
and Runaway: In County (lO.3%), to/hne black females were referred for Shoplifting (24.6%), Dependency (18.8%)$
and Ungovernable Behavior" (lO.5%).
For ma les, th~ main reasons for 'referral changed p."1iilari ly a:J ~ result of the classification pr'obl em.
White males were l"sfer\"ed for Burglary (14.7%), Disorderly Conduc-e (8~8%L arid Dependency {6.4%} v':-:'1':e black
males \'Jere i"eferred for Burglary (20.no ~ Shoplifting (12.4%), and Dependency {6.6%).
As a result of the new crim'lnal ccde~ the best way to compm"e the i"~as,!)ilS for referral in 1975 to previ~"-;s
years is thi"ough tile use of thE: FBI Cr'hTle Classifico:t-ion which comi:rl:1eS simi'li}i' Gffenses. T~lis grou;ring resldt"

2.Concern has already been expressed about the number- of ti~uandes in 1975. It has been en'r.meollsiy stilted that the number of truancies should have 'increased because Gf the boycott of the court desegregat~ion order"'~ however!? a child must be truant a certain number of days before legal act-ion can be takEn. TherefQre the petitions for truancy were not taken out until the late months of 1975, and most of them in 1975. A first··count semiannual for January to June of 1976 shows already 565 truancy referrals.

The largest percentage increases were noted in Drunkenness (94.2%)~ Other Assault (90.3%), Other (77.0%)~
Arson (62.1%), and Rape (61.5%). Decreases were apparent in Family Offenses (BO.O%), Marriage Requests (76.7%),
Homicide (45.5%), Vagrancy (40.0%), and Weapons (31.4%).
Through the use of another collapsed classification for the offenses which categorizes them as nlajor or
minor offenses, it can readily be seen that the major offenses continued to increase. The number of social
offenses (ungovernable behavior? runaways, truancies g and attempted suicides) have remained relatively the
same. The majority of the offenses were either minor (38.B%) or major against property (30.0%) offenses.

Court have decreased since 1973 which was probably a result of the Youth Diversion Project.'+
If a child is not referred to t}.; 'YDP t ar released to his/her parents ~ the police then take the youth to
the Diagnostic and Detention Center.
SECTION 1.2: DIAGNOSTIC AND DETENTION CENTER
The Diagnostic and Detention Center serves as the primary physical entrance into the Juvenile Justice
System. The Center provides temporary care to juveniles under the age of eighteen who are ch81.'ged t'lith delin-
quency or a traffic offense. Each child must have either a police repo:v:t~ a remand, or a. writ to be admitt~d
to the Center.
Normally the juvenile does not r~main in the Center after the pretrial, but the follm'ling factors deter-
mine the length of detaimnent of a chUd .
.; He is a danger to himself and/or the community.
I There is some indicatio'U that th.e child l,dll run aliay pending the. nrl"8ig£lTICht •
.; The offense is particr11arly serious, or involves a physical attack or othel' violent a(;ts tc,v;a:rd
another person or ;!:avolves the use of firearms or any other weapon. These types of .alleged
offenders are held automatically •
../ The child is mOl-in to the Center personnel as an l1abitual offender or as one vlho has failed to
appear in the past for court appearances.

/ There is no parent$ guardian, or other responsible person to whom the child can be released.
Since 1971, the rate of individual detainment has decreased to close to the accepted national deten-
tion practice of ten percent of the referrals being detained past the arraignment stage.
At the Detention Center, the yo~,h can be released to his/her parents, the Shelter House (which aids
social offenders) or the Alternative to Detention Program. If none of these options are accepted, the child
remains in the Center until the Judge releases him/her.

5In 1974, the data collection was not complete so that the information is unknown. 6Total detention are those who were not paroled before arraignment. 7The rate of individual detention is derived by determining the ratio of total detentions to total Juve-
nile Court referrals.

sarily be derived from legal interpretation.
The assessment worker interviews the family and child, SUl!IDlORS the l1itnesses, informs the family of any
changes in court dates> and p2"esents the case to the Court. The ,,'orker handles the case through the al'l-aign-
ment s pre-trial, and dispositional hearing.
Fo:rmal cases appear befoY'e the c.:mrt first at the arraignment. At this stage, seve:caJ Op-;;10l15 are open
to the Trial Ccmmissioner h2.ndling the case. The C3..r.;e can be dismissed, reiIlanded,. filed away ~ referred for
infoHnal adjustment or passed to a hearing date. If the case is finaled (not p&.ssed to a later date). the
juvenile basically leaves tI.e SystE'ffi. tut tI1C c:;!.se can be reopened and the juven.ile returned to Court.
When the cas€' is passed .. the child may be s~nt to th0 Detention Center, an Alterna.t.ive to Detenticm HO':l>e,
the Shelter House, the Home Detention PrGgram, or released to the parents or anQther responsible person.
SECTION 1.7: HOME DETENTION
TIle Home Detention Program began in March of 1975. Youths are assigned to the program either at the
arraigrrrnent or at the detention hearing. Through this program, the child is released to hi$ home while inten-
sive supervision is provided by the home detention worker.
- 20
The specific goals of the pro~ram are:
I to reduce the average daily population of the Detention Center;
I to provide care at a cost comparable to or less expensive than the detention experience;
I to make sure the child is available for scheduled court heari-:1gs; and
I to assist the youth in remaining trouble free during the period of his/her adjudicatioll.
From April 1 to December 31; 1975, approxirr~tely 140 juveniles were referred ~~d handled through the Hom~ 10
Detention Program.
The Judge will usually pass a case so that the l·litnesses can be sUTI'Jlioned, a lawyer can be obt.ained" an
investigation can take place~ a casework study can be done$ and testing can be done by the Psychological
Services Department.
SECTION 1.8: PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT
The Psychological Services Department has been a part of the Juvenile Coart furlction5 since April of 1956.
Cases referred by the Court receive top priority in ·testing" but other divisions of MSSD may also refer juve
niles to this department. Each child tested is evaluated to determine the most app1"opriate treatment recOTIII'leruiz.
tion. During 1975 ~ this department handled &.n average of 55 cases per month.

The Gault decision of 1967 was a ruling by the United States Supreme Court which gave juveniles the right
to representation by counsel in Juvenile Court hearings. Even if the family of the child cannot afford legal
counsel, the child is nevertheless entitled to quality representation.
For 1975, more referrals had their own counsel than in previous years. The percentage of those with no
counsel decreased since 1974.

A case may be passed numerous times before it finally reaches the dispositional hearing. During this
hearing, the Judge reviews the case and Dlakes note of the recommendations of the case worker and comes to a
conclusion as to what treatment, if any~ would be in the best interest of the child. The most common grouped
dispositions are Filed Away (58.3%), Delinquent Institutions (9.9%), Probation (8.6%), and Restitution (5.0%).
In 1975, the average juvenile referral was more likely to be filed away than in previous years.

Referrals for Homicide, Runalflays~ Behavior Problems and Vagrancy were placed in delinquent institutions
more often than the other offenders.
There are a number of resources and programs available to the Judge for placement of the juvenile. In
1975~ 310 adjudicated delinquents were placed on probation to f4SSD by the Juvenile Court Judge.
The MsSD Probation Department serves the delinquent in both his social and family environment. Intensive
counseling is provided on an individual and/or group basis. In the past five years, the majority of the refer
rals to the Probation Department t'fere for major property offenses. The total number of referrals to probation
continued to increase until 1975 when a 31.4 per cent decrease occurred.

Fewer juveniles were referred to CRTP in 1975. This decrease t'.fas due to the fact that the children
remained in the group homes for a longer period of time.
After the Judge has issued a disposition" the case can be brought back into court fOT Tmriew, to change
the previous disposition~ to release the child from probation$ to exaruine a ~~olation of probation~ or to
study the childvs behavior to see if the stipulations issued by the Court at the dispositional hearing were

Although the coefficient of correlation between the biD years
remains high, certain PSC's have changed dramatically in terms of
manifest social pathology. PSC-8 (Old Louisville) has deteriorated
the most, dropping from eleventh place to fifteenth. The only
other PSC that showed a great change was the Vi 11 age-~lest/Centra 1
Business District which moved from fifteenth position to tenth.
Overal1~ however, there has been little movement of the communities
Table 31. Planning Service Communit Rankings (1968 and 1975)
relative to each other based on the average i Scores.
Among the individual indicators!> hovJever~ two shov./ low corre
lation coefficients. Both the rate of s'ingle parent living at"range-
ment and recidivism have coefficients below RII=.50. This indicates
greater change between 1968 and 1975 among the fifteen Planning
Service Communities for these two variables. For both variables
PSC-9 showed the greatest improvement and PSC-8 the greatest deterio-
ration.

Overall, in the interval between 1968 and 1975 9 there has been little movement of the communities in
terms of their rankings based on the average t Scores of social pathology except for the sharp deterioration
of PSC-8 and improvement in PSC-3. If these indicators are representative of actual conditions then the Old
Louisville section has shown the greatest deterioration since 1968.

The r'eason for closing for the
assistance and service cases is listed in
Table 6. Nearly one-third of the assis-
tance cases were closed because the head
of the household was employabJe. Almost
thirty per cent of the assistance ca~es
were closed because the c1 ient started
receiving AFDC. It is noteworthy that
those assistance cases closed because of
SSI and Social Security, \'Jhi 1 e not that
numerous~ on the average had been active
for a longer period of time than cases
closed for other reasons.
For planning and case aSSignment purposes, MSSD has divided Jefferson County into fifteen geographical
areas known as Planning Service Com~un1ties (PSC's). Illustration 1 is a map of Jefferson County which
presents a generalized picture of the residency patterns of the Financial Assistance cases. The precise data
for fiscal year 1975/76 and fiscal year 1974/75 are given in Table 7. The largest number of cases continued
to come from PSC-8 and PSC-2 although for both of the Planning Servic~ ~~iti~s, the actual number of cases
- 70 -
----------
was down as compared to the previous years. The greatest percentage decrease was in Southwest Jefferson County
(PSC-ll). The only community to register a substantial increase ~~s the South Central part of Jefferson County
(PSC-13).

Tha"'\":: was considerable variance among
the Pl f..;"!i1ing Service Communi ties in the
ratio of single cases to household cases.
This is illustt"ated in Table 8. In general ~
the inner-city communities had higher rates
~f single cases than those from the outer-
county cO;TIl11lmiti es. For both PSC-4 and PSt-8,
rilore than sixty per cent of the cases ~"er~e
single cases. By way of contrast, onlY 12.5
per cent of the cases in PSC-ll were single
cases.
Table 9 l"ists the Planning $!ervice Comi":1urrfties by reason for care for assistance cases. As can be seen~
the percentage of cases in each of the categoV'iE:S dHfers scm&~-Ihat from cOIiUlunity to community. Illness was
the greatest reason for care in PSC' s 2~ 4~ 7, 8 and 12 t'Jliile IIAtvaiting Income ll \'.}as the p}~edGminant reason in
PSC's 1, 3~ 5, 6, 10, 11 and 13. "Laid Off" was the primat"y reason for care in PSC's 9, 14 and 15. Tltio-thirds
of the out of county cases were I'i'rJme 1 ess cases.

SECTION 1.1: FWAl"'ICIAL P.SSISTt.?{CE NONTHLY DATA
This section is based on accounting reports which were received monthly. It therefore contains a
duplicatEd count for much of the information since a case appeared separately in the monthly data in each
month the case !r~as active. It is therefore based on differ'ent information than the previous section and
should be treated accordlogiy.
The Financial Assistance Program operates on a voucher system in which grants are given for the specific
expenditures and needs of the ciient. Table 10 is iii compilation of all the vouchers for each of the Hera!:.
dl.a'ing fiscal year 75/76. As can be seer.~ the vast majority of the vouchers were for either food or rt'f:t.
The third most fmrnerous category ~~as util iti€s. The mean amount per vl!)ucher for whites was higher tilan that
for bl acks, but a higher percentage of the vuuche~"s for !fJnites went to housfl:nold cases than lrJCi.S true of the
vouchers for black cases.

Table 12 presents the mean amount pei" voucher item pe\' ITICn'di fr~c.m JU-!Y9 1975 to June, 1976. ThE' most
significant change '!'Jas "ir'f the avero,ge a.mOlmt per rent v(}ijche~~. In qJuly, 1975:1 the mean amount per rent
vouchel~ was $49.77!t but in June, 1976~ this figure had inc}"eased to $6~.03 per rent vouchel'. It shculd also
be rlotc:!d that this increase became most apDarent in :Ictoberl) 1~;?5. Ail examination Jf the i'iiean cost per lent
voucheV' for the prior fiscal yeat., (July, 1974~ Jt..me~ 1975) indicates that there t'Jas not a corresponding in-
crease.
A second item which increased significantly during fiscal year 15/76 t"las the mean amount per voucher for
ut"iliti:es. In JU1-ij 1975, the mean amount per voucher foY' ut-nities \r/as $16.72 but in June~ 1976, this figure
It!as $26 .. 84. Even higher levels had been reached in Februat~Y9 narch and rfl.ay Df 1976. The average amount per

SECTION 2.0: LOUISVILLE AND JEFFERSON COUNTY NUTRITIONAL PROGRilJ~ FOR THE AGING
In January, 1974, a grant from the Administration on Aging (Title VII) enabled MSSD to initiate the
Louisville and Jefferson County Nutritional Program for the Aging.
The purpose of this program is to provide one hot meal per day, five days per week either in a congregate
setting or in an individual's ovm home. However, emphasis must be placed on the congregate meal setting aspect
of the program in order to encourage socialization and to alleviate the feelings of loneliness and rejection
that are so prevalent among older citizens.
The Nutrition Program sites were chosen according to their proximity to concentrations of older (over 60)~
poor and minor'ity populations. Transportation from central pid-up points within designated areas to sites
and back again is provided.
The following supportive social services are provided to the program's participants: Outreach~ Escort~
Transportation~ Information and Referra1 9 Health and Welfare Counseling» Recreation, Nutrition Education and
Shopping Assistance. The older citizens themselves are involved in the project through employment~ VOlunteer
activity and daily participation in meal programs and site activities.
The sites and their iocation are:
Jefferson Street Baptist Church 733 East Jefferson Street Louisville, KY 40203
First Christian Church 850 South Fourth Street Louisville, KY 40203
Fairdale South-Park 9001 National Turnpike Fairdale, KY 40118
