Children in Custody Questionnaire Redesign Project: Results from Phase 1 Exploratory Interviews

Written by:
SM95-23

Executive Summary

This report provides results on the Phase 1 background research and site visits for the Children in Custody (CIC) questionnaire redesign project. Sources of data used for this report include information supplied by experts, a review of previous census forms, and interviews and observations conducted from August to December, 1994 at 40 purposively selected juvenile facilities in 10 states and the District of Columbia. The distribution of facility types included in our sample was roughly proportionate to the distribution of official facility types marked off on the 1993 census form. A few interviews were conducted with respondents at nonresponding facilities and at new types of facilities identified by write-in responses on the 1993 forms. Additional stratifiers included public/private administration, state, size, central reporter/umbrella agencies, and urban/rural locations.
