| 1. | Race/Ethnicity – OIAA makes use of WSRDAC/M reporting standard for reporting race/ethnicity (Washington State Racial Disproportionality Advisory Committee/Modified). This means we have disaggregated and recombined the multi-racial category, so that multiracial American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) and multiracial Black/African American children will appear in the larger AI/AN and Black categories. For reference on why and how we use this method, see OIAA’s report: Using Data in DCYF to Advance Racial Equity, 2021. https://www.dcyf.wa.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/reports/OIAAEquityData2021.pdf |
| 2. | Data Source: Juvenile Rehabilitation Automated Client Tracking (ACT), 2024. |
| 3. | Exclusions: This dataset excludes RCI events lasting less than one hour and RCI events that were self-requested by the resident. |
| 4. | Room Confinement: “Room confinement” means a juvenile is separated from the youth population and placed in a room or cell that the juvenile is assigned to for sleeping, other than during normal sleeping hours or interim rest hours. "Room confinement" does not include time a youth requests to spend in his or her room or rest periods in between facility programming. Juveniles are in room confinement from the moment they are separated from others until they are permitted to rejoin the population. |
| 5. | Isolation: "Isolation" means confinement that occurs (a) when a youth is separated from the youth population and placed in a room for longer than 15 minutes for the purpose of discipline, behavior modification, or due to an imminent threat to the safety of the youth or others; and (b) in a room other than the room assigned to the youth for sleeping. Juveniles are in isolation from the moment they are separated from others until they have rejoined the population. Juveniles who are pregnant shall not be put into isolation. Maintaining appropriate gender separation does not constitute isolation. |
