ON THE HEELS OF THE US SURGEON
GENERAL'S DIRE WARNING ABOUT
THE GROWING MENTAL HEALTH
CRISIS AMONG OUR YOUTH WHICH
HAS WORSENED DUE TO THE COVERT

HEALTH REFORM IS NEEDED IT
IS NOW MORE THAN VITAL THAN
EVER TO INCREASE ACCESS TO
MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE

FOR CHILDREN'S MENTAL HEALTH
RESIDENTIAL INTERVENTIONS

TWENTY THREE SEVENTEEN WOULD
ADD THE PSYCHIATRIC RESIDENTIAL
TREATMENT PROGRAM AS A
LICENSING OPTION FOR CHILDREN'S
CRISIS RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMS
WITH THE APPROPRIATE LICENSING
CATEGORY ESTABLISHMENT IN
THE STATE AND COUNTIES WOULD
HAVE ACCESS TO THE CRITICAL
COMPONENT OF THE CONTINUED

WE REPRESENT A HUNDRED AND
SIXTY NATIONALLY ACCREDITED
NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT
DELIVER CARE FOR A MEDIC CAL
PROGRAM TO -- THE STATE'S
MOST VULNERABLE CHILDREN
AND YOUTH IN CALIFORNIA AND
THEY ARE SEEN HIGHER ACUITY
THAN EVER BEFORE WE ARE THE
PROUD SPONSORS OF ASSEMBLY
BILL TWENTY THREE SEVENTEEN
AB AT TWENTY THREE SEVENTEEN
ADDRESSES A SIGNIFICANT
EXISTING GAP IN OUR BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH CONTINUUM FOR THE YOUTH
BECAUSE CALIFORNIA WAX THESE
PROGRAMS THAT SPECIFICALLY MEET
THE INTENSIVE TREATMENT NEEDS
OF YOUTH THAT ARE BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH CRISIS THOSE CHILDREN
CAN LANGUISH IN EMERGENCY ROOMS
OR SIMPLY GO UNSERVED WHEN IT
MATTERS THE MOST THE NECESSARY
TREATMENT PROGRAMS DO NOT EXIST
BECAUSE CALIFORNIA DOES NOT
HAVE A LICENSING CATEGORY BUT
DOES EXIST IN MANY OTHER STATES
AB TWENTY THREE SEVENTEEN
ADDRESSES THIS GAP BY ADDING A
NEW LICENSING CATEGORY IN OUR
STATE STATUTE THE PSYCHIATRIC
RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT FACILITY
THESE PROGRAMS DELIVER SHORT
TERM -- INTENSIVE CARE WITH
THE GOAL OF STABILIZING THAT
YOUTH AND SECOND DOWN TO LESS
INTENSIVE TREATMENT OPTIONS IN
COMMUNITY IN A STUDY OF CRISIS
SERVICES PRIOR TO THE PANDEMIC
THE MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES
OVERSIGHT AND ACCOUNTABILITY
COMMISSION HIGHLIGHTED THAT
FORTY THOUSAND CHILDREN WILL
BE HOSPITALIZED EVERY YEAR
IN CALIFORNIA FOR BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH CRISIS THE SAME STUDY
IDENTIFIED ONLY SIX HUNDRED
AND FIFTY FOUR PSYCHIATRIC
BEDS AVAILABLE FOR CHILDREN
AND ADULTS AND ADOLESCENTS
STATEWIDE OUR CALIFORNIA
CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS YOU'LL
HEAR FROM IN A MINUTE OR SEEN
THE RESULTS OF NOT HAVING THIS
LEVEL OF CARE IN CALIFORNIA
FOR EXAMPLE IN SAN DIEGO
RADIUS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL HAS
REPORTED OVER SEVENTEEN HUNDRED
PERCENT INCREASE IN MENTAL
HEALTH EMERGENCIES OF OUR YOUTH
COMING INTO THEIR E.
OURS OVER AN EIGHT YEAR PERIOD
SO WE SINCERELY APPRECIATE
THE WORK OF THE CHAIR OF THE
OF THE COMMITTEE AND STAFF
TO FURTHER STRENGTHEN THIS
BILL -- AS WELL AS ALL OF THE
OTHER POLICY COMMITTEES IN
THE STATE LEGISLATURE AND WE
COMMIT TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH
A BROAD ARRAY OF STAKEHOLDERS
INCLUDING THOSE WHO HAVE
EXPRESSED CONCERN ABOUT THIS
BILL AND IMPLEMENTATION WE ASK
FOR YOUR AYE VOTE TODAY THANK
YOU OUR NEXT MISS BLOOMBERG
MISTER TERM MEMBERS AMY
BLOOMBERG ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
ASSOCIATION CCHA REPRESENTS
THE EIGHT PRIVATE NONPROFIT
FREESTANDING CHILDREN'S
HOSPITALS AND THE STATE
APPROXIMATELY SIXTY TWO PERCENT
OF OUR PATIENTS ARE ON MEDICAID
AND I'M HERE TODAY TO URGE YOUR
SUPPORT FOR AB TWENTY THREE
SEVENTEEN OVER THE LAST THREE
YEARS CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS
HAVE SEEN A DRAMATIC INCREASE
IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS IN
PSYCHIATRIC CRISIS OVER THE
COURSE OF THE COVERT NINETEEN
PANDEMIC AT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
OF ORANGE COUNTY ARE CHOCK
THERE'S BEEN A FIFTY TWO
PERCENT INCREASE IN THE NUMBER
OF CHILDREN ASK ADOLESCENTS
SEEKING CARE IN THE EMERGENCY
DEPARTMENT THE LENGTH OF STAY
IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT
HAS ALSO INCREASED FROM JULY
TWENTY NINETEEN TO MAY TWENTY
TWENTY THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF
STAY WAS SIX POINT EIGHT HOURS
IF A CHILD WAS DISCHARGED HOME
AND WAS SIXTEEN HOURS AT THE
TURN THE CHILD WAS ADMITTED
TO AN INPATIENT PSYCHIATRIC
UNIT FROM JULY TWENTY TWENTY
ONE TO MAY TWENTY TWENTY TWO
THE TIME INCREASED TO ELEVEN
POINT FIVE HOURS AND TWENTY
FOUR HOURS RESPECTIVELY HOURS
HAVE INCREASED DUE TO LACK
OF OUTPATIENT SERVICES TO
DISCHARGED HOME TO LACK OF
INPATIENT PSYCHIATRIC BEDS
AS WELL AS NO RESIDENTIAL
OPTIONS WE'RE SEEING A SIMILAR
SITUATION AT RADY CHILDREN'S
HOSPITAL SAN DIEGO AT OUR
OTHER HOSPITALS MANY OF THE
CHILDREN ARRIVING IN THE
EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT COULD BE
TREATED MORE EFFECTIVELY IN A
RESIDENTIAL SETTING PROVIDING
QUALITY AND SAFE CARE AND ALSO
RESERVING THE LIMITED INPATIENT
PSYCHIATRIC BEDS FOR KIDS THAT
NEED IT MOST ACCESS TO CRISIS
RESIDENTIAL BEDS IS A SAFE
AND EFFECTIVE DISCHARGE OPTION
FOR PATIENTS THAT REQUIRE
IN PATIENT HOSPITALIZATION
RIGHT NOW MANY COMMERCIAL
COMMERCIALLY INSURED PATIENTS
HAVE THIS AS AN OPTION THAT
IS USE REGULARLY WHEN STEPPING
DOWN TO ONCE A WEEK OR ONCE A
MONTH THERAPY IS TOO BIG OF A
DROP UNFORTUNATELY ACCESS TO
RESIDENTIAL CRISIS BEDS IS NOT
COVERED FOR MEDICARE PATIENTS
FOR THESE KIDS THE MAIN OPTION
IS GOING FROM TWENTY FOUR
HOUR SUPERVISION IN A LOCKED
IN PATIENT UNIT MISSING A
THERAPIST EVERY FEW WEEKS AS
YOU CAN IMAGINE THIS IS NOT
SUCCESSFUL FOR MANY PATIENTS
AND THEY END UP RETURNING TO
THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT OR
IN PATIENT PSYCHIATRIC UNIT AB
TWENTY THREE SEVENTEEN WOULD
ADD AN IMPORTANT TOOL TO ASSIST
PEDIATRIC PATIENTS IN CRISIS
AND FOR THESE REASONS I URGE

OPPOSITION TODAY FROM OUR
PERSPECTIVE THESE CHILDREN USE
THE MORE PROTECTIONS NOT LESS

THIS BILL TODAY THERE HAVE BEEN
IMPROVEMENTS IN THE PROTECTIONS
FOR THIS VULNERABLE POPULATIONS
BUT WE STILL NEED TO SEE MORE
SPECIFICALLY THERE'S NO HARD
CAP FOR HOW LONG CHILDREN YOUTH

THERE'S NO LIMITATION FOR
HOW LARGE THESE FACILITIES

NO INVESTMENT A COMMUNITY
BASED SERVICES AND SUPPORTS
TO PREVENT YOU FROM LIGHTING

WITH END ARE CAUTIONING CONCERN
IS IS WITH AMERICAN WE LOOK
NATIONWIDE AT THESE FACILITIES
THE REPRESENTATION IS BAD
THEY'RE SUED THERE'S ABUSE
THERE'S AN EXACT AND WE LOOK AT
PAGE EIGHTEEN OF THE ANALYSIS
BUT NO NINE THERE IS WIDESPREAD
RAPID ABUSE NEGLECT LAWSUITS
IMPROPER USE OF RESTRAINTS AND
SECLUSION FOR VARIOUS REASONS
AND WE JUST URGE CALIFORNIA TO
PROCEED WITH CAUTION BECAUSE
THESE FACILITIES HAVE NOT
WORKED WELL IN OTHER STATES
WE SEE CALIFORNIA AS THE
MODEL FOR THE NATION AND WE
WANT CALIFORNIA TO DO BETTER

FACILITIES IS NOT GOOD AND WE
DO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS A
CONTINUUM OF CARE NEED THESE

THANK YOU
AND AT THE TIME THE NORTHERN
THANK YOU ALREADY LET'S
BRING IT BACK TO COMMITTEE OF
QUESTIONS BY COMMITTEE MEMBERS
THE SENATE RUSSELL YES -- THANK
YOU TO THE AUTHOR FOR RAISING
THESE ISSUES OBVIOUSLY QUITE
SENSITIVE AND WE HAVE WE DO
HAVE A A DARK HISTORY IN THIS
COUNTRY IN TERMS OF HOW -- --
MENTAL HEALTH OR PSYCHIATRIC
INSTITUTIONS TREAT CERTAIN
COMMUNITIES -- AND THAT'S OF
PARTICULAR CONCERN TO ME IT
WAS KIND OF LIKE WHEN YOU KNOW
-- IS HE DIDN'T KNOW ENOUGH
ENGLISH WORD TRACT YOU KNOW
ANOTHER -- WERE TRACKED IN
THE WRONG WAY BECAUSE OF THE
ENGLISH LANGUAGE LACK OF IT
INTO -- YOU KNOW CLASSES THAT
WERE HELLO THEM -- SO I'M
I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THAT AND
WONDERING WHAT DO YOU THINK
AND OR IF ANY OF YOUR EXPERT
WITNESSES WHAT MORE CAN WE DO
WHAT WHAT IS IT ABOUT THIS BILL
THAT WE COULD FEEL COMFORTABLE
AND BE ABLE TO SLEEP IN SAY
WE'RE OKAY WE'RE WE'RE GOING
TO DO SOMETHING THAT WHERE
THE KIDS ARE GOING TO BE MUCH
BETTER OFF THAN IF WE DIDN'T
HAVE THIS AND IF YOU DON'T
MIND -- ASSEMBLY MEMBER AFTER
YOU MAKE YOUR REMARKS IF THE
WITNESS FROM THE CHILDREN'S
HOSPITALS WOULD SPEAK TO THAT
AS WELL THAT WOULD BE GREAT
THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR THOSE
QUESTIONS -- SENATORS RUSSELL
IS EXACTLY WHY WE'RE HERE
WHEN YOU SEE THAT THE FORTY
EIGHT COUNTIES IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA HAVE NO RESOURCES
FOR OUR YOUTH AND WE SEE THE
SPIKE IN SUICIDE ACROSS THE
BOARD AND -- YOU KNOW DIFFERENT
CATEGORIES DIFFERENT CULTURES
ARE IMPACTED AS A GREATER AREA
WE CARRY DIFFERENT BILLS THAT
THAT BRING AWARENESS TO THAT
PART OF IT IS -- IDENTIFYING
AND THE SPIKE MOVING FORWARD
IN THE DIRE WARNING BY THE
SURGEON GENERAL THAT SUICIDE
A MENTAL HEALTH CONTINUES TO
BE SOMETHING THAT PLAGUES ALL
OF OUR COMMUNITIES IS SO THIS
BILL STARTS TO PAVE THE WAY TO
START TO ADDRESS THOSE AND GET
RESOURCES TOGETHER BY REALLY
COMING TOGETHER AND MAKING
SURE THE DEFINITIONS WITHIN THE
FEDERAL AND THE STATE COMBINED
SO THAT RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE
TO FUND THESE PROGRAMS THAT
ARE VERY MUCH NEEDED I DON'T
KNOW IF ANYBODY COULD ELABORATE
A LITTLE BIT MORE ON THAT
THANK YOU SENATOR RAZA FOR
THE QUESTION AND WE NEED
TO BOTH BOLSTER COMMUNITY
BASED CARE AND MAINTAIN THAT
SAFETY NET FOR CHILDREN IN
CRISIS THE FEDERAL INSTEAD
ACT OBLIGATES CALIFORNIANS
FOR THAT MENTAL HEALTH CARE
TO CHILDREN AND YOUTH OCCUR
IN THE LEAST RESTRICTIVE
SETTING AND THERE'S ALREADY
EXISTING LAW THAT REQUIRES US
TO UTILIZE INTERVENTIONS IN THE
LEAST RESTRICTIVE SETTING SO
RIGHT NOW THIS THIS -- PLEASE
USE BEDS DO NOT EXIST ON THE
ASSEMBLY MEN ALREADY TALKED
ABOUT THE LACK OF BEDS AND
THE MAJORITY OF THE COUNTIES
IN THE STATE SO THIS IS --
AT A NEEDED OPTION ON THE
CONTINUUM AND AND WOULD YOU
SAY WITH REGARDS TO THE USE
OF RESTRAINT OR SECLUSION IN
WHAT KIND OF WHY DO YOU FEEL
COMFORTABLE THAT THERE ARE
THE SAFEGUARDS THERE FOR THAT
WHAT ARE THE AMENDMENTS SEARCH
TAKEN INSIDE THE BILL ITSELF
WOULD REQUIRE THE DEPARTMENT TO
INSPECT PSYCHIATRIC RESIDENTIAL
TREATMENT FACILITIES AND WHAT
AUTHORIZED ANY OFFICER OR
EMPLOYEE AGENT DEPARTMENT TO
ENTER THIS INSPECTED FACILITIES
SO PUTTING THAT IN THERE STARTS
TO BALANCE THAT THAT THE TRUE
TREATMENT THAT'S TAKING PLACE
IN THE SPIKE THAT'S GOING ON
IN A LOT OF ARE ARE DIFFERENT
-- COMMUNITIES WE SEE THE SPIKE
IN SUICIDE WE SEE THE SPIKE IN
MENTAL HEALTH THAT BEING ABLE
TO HAVE A FACILITY AND BEING
ABLE TO HAVE AN INSPECTION ON
SITE NOTICE WITHOUT ANY NOTICE
WOULD BE ABLE TO START TO --
INSURE THE COMPARABILITY OF
THOSE THAT ARE THERE TWENTY
THANK YOU OTHER QUESTIONS A
YES IN A WAY BECAUSE HE SO AS
I WAS GOING THROUGH THE STAFF
REPORT I UNDERSTAND LEASE
THE DRIVE HERE FOR THIS BILL
SAID NOW THERE'S NO FACILITY
THERE'S NOTHING YOU GO INTO
THE HOSPITAL AND AND AND
THAT'S IT THERE'S NO COMMUNITY
BASED SERVICES OR THESE
ARE PSYCHIATRIC RESIDENTIAL
TREATMENT FACILITIES SO
YOU'VE CHOSEN THE PSYCHIATRIC
TREATMENT FACILITIES IN THE
STAFF REPORT IS FILLED WITH
THE CHALLENGES THAT WE HAVE
-- NATIONWIDE OF ABUSE AND
AND AND AND THE MISUSE OF
THEM ONE OF THE KEY ELEMENTS
POINTED OUT WITH THE ARM BUT
IS BY THE REPORTER HERE FOR
THE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE IS THE
COURT OVERSIGHT IF THE THREE
HUNDRED SECTION SIX ONE ONE SIX
OH TWO TWO SECTIONS CAN YOU IS
THAT ADEQUATE IS THAT ADEQUATE
FOR TO HAVE THIS THE COURT LOOK
AT THIS EVERY SIXTY DAYS AND
EVERY THIRTY DAYS TO COME BACK
TO REVIEW THE TREATMENT THAT
THE THAT IS OCCURRING FOR THIS
CHILD WHAT IS -- EMANCIPATED
A PERSON UP TO TWENTY ONE
YEARS OLD AT A PSYCHIATRIC
RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT CENTER
CERTAINLY THE REST OF THE
CHECKS AND BALANCE AND AND YOU
KNOW BUILDING UP THE QUESTION
SENATOR ROZ WAS BROUGHT FORWARD
THAT'S ONE OF THOSE CHECKS AND
BALANCES TO MOVE FORWARD ONE
OF THE REASONS WHY WE'RE SO
-- PASSION ABOUT THIS ISSUE IS
WHEN WE ARE ON THE COUNTY BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS AND WITHIN OUR
OUR COMMUNITIES WE SEE THIS
BIKE MOVING FORWARD RIGHT NOW
CRISIS STABILIZATION UNITS
ARE AREAS WE COULD ACTUALLY
-- TAKE PEOPLE TOO BUT IT'S
SHORT LIVED AND SO FOR MANY
MANY OF OUR YOUTH THAT ARE
GOING THROUGH A PSYCHIATRIC
EPISODE THERE ONLY ALTERNATIVES
IS ONE THE EMERGENCY ROOM IN
IN THE HOSPITALS OR JUVENILE
HALL OR SOME OF THOSE THINGS
AND SO WE'RE TRYING TO GET
ANOTHER PLACE FOR THAT TO
TAKE TAKE PLACE RIGHT WITH
THE DIFFERENT CLINICIANS WITH
THE DIFFERENT SUPPORT AND
THE CHECKS AND BALANCES THAT
ARE THERE AGAIN SITTING BACK
AND KNOWING THE FORTY EIGHT
COUNTIES HAVE NO SERVICES AT
ALL IS SOMETHING WE HAVE TO
MOVE FORWARD TO START MOVING
THE DIALOGUE FORWARD WITH THE
CHECKS AND BALANCES WILL BE FAR
HAPS MY WITH MISTER CHAIR IF I
COULD PERHAPS MY QUESTION THE
OPPOSITION IS SAYING COMMUNITY
BASED SERVICES IS A BETTER
ALTERNATIVE FOR THIS LIMITED
POPULATION THAT CURRENTLY
HAS NO CARE IN HERE SENATE
JUDICIARY COMMITTEE HER ALL THE
PROBLEMS HAPPENING NATIONWIDE
ON THESE -- PSYCHIATRIC
TREATMENT FACILITIES WHICH ARE
AN ALTERNATIVE TO TO DO THAT
WHY COULDN'T AND THAT THIS IS
YOUR BILL YOUR BILL YOU WANT TO
HAVE TO PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT
AND I WILL NOTE THAT YOU HAVE
AN ANNUAL REPORT IN IT WHICH
IS ANOTHER SAFEGUARD AT LEAST
THE LEGISLATURE WE'LL GET
SOME IDEA OF WHAT'S GOING ON
BUT WHY WOULD THE WHAT'S THE
YEAH WHAT'S THE QUESTION OF
WHAT I WANT TO SAY THE -- --
YOU SEE A GREATER BENEFIT IN
THE PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT THEN
THE COMMUNITY BASED SERVICES
WHY IS THAT EXPLAINED WHY
THAT SELL OR GIVE OUT GIVEN
THE HISTORY I THINK WORK
IN ALL FACETS OF IT I THINK
THERE'S AREAS THAT NEED TO BE
AMPLIFIED WITH THE DIFFERENT
SERVICES ARE THERE ARE THERE
BUT WE ALSO NEED TO TAKE A
STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
FOR THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
IN MAKING SURE THE DEFINITION
AND THE FUNDING THAT COMES
FIRST I GUESS YOU PSYCHIATRIC
RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT CENTERS
ACTUALLY COMES WITH FUNDING
FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
I'M NOT SURE OF ANY OF OUR
WITNESSES WANT TO CHIME IN
A LITTLE BIT MORE ON THAT
WE WILL I'M HAPPY TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THE CALIFORNIA ALLIANCE
OF TOM FAMILY SERVICES AND I
THINK I WOULD JUST ADD THAT
WE NEED TO DO BOTH WE NEED
TO BUILD UP TO BOLSTER OUR
COMMUNITY BASED SERVICES AND
WE HAVE A WE HAVE A CRISIS
IN OUR COMMUNITIES WHICH THAT
WHICH IS THAT THESE CHILDREN
AND YOUTH ARE NOT ABLE TO BE
SERVED IN COMMUNITY THEY NEED
INTENSIVE TWENTY FOUR SEVEN YOU
KNOW INTERVENTIONS TO STABILIZE
A CRISIS AND THEN STUFF THEM
BACK DOWN TO COMMUNITY BASED
SERVICES SO WE WE NEED TO DO
BOTH AND WE'RE WORKING ON BOTH
-- BUT WOULD WANT TO DO ONE AT
THE EXPENSE OF THE OTHER CAN I
ASK ONE FOR NEXT FINAL QUESTION
ON THE SIZE I KNOW THAT THE
ANNUAL REPORT ASKED WHEN
IT CLICKS IN THE TWENTY TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY EAST BETTER FIVE
HUNDRED BADGERS SEVEN OUR PETS
LET US KNOW WHAT THAT IS BUT
IT SEEMS TO ME YOU HAVE PEOPLE
THAT HAVE BIG PROBLEMS THEY'RE
ALL GETTING TOGETHER IN A
PSYCHIATRIC TREATMENT FACILITY
LOOKS MORE LIKE A PRESENT TO
ME AT A DINNER IN IT JUST AS
WE GET TO SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY
FOR INSTANCE TELL ME SOMETHING
ABOUT THE SIZE BECAUSE THE
OPPOSITION AGAIN IS SAYING
WAIT A MINUTE YOU KNOW LET'S
HAVE SOMETHING MODEST MORE
MODEST I GUESS WE HAVE NOTHING
NOW BUT SOMETHING MODEST ON
SIZE BUT THE NEED IS GREAT
THE THE NEED THAT IT THAT IT'S
IN OUR COMMUNITY IS GREAT AND
I THINK -- THE CONVERSATIONS
WE'RE HAVING NOW WITHIN THIS
COMMUNITY IF THIS COMMITTEE --
STARTS TO RISE TO THE LEVEL OF
THE NEEDED DISCUSSION AROUND
ON THE SITUATION THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA IN THE NATION FOR
ALL THAT SOME OF THESE HAVE
BEEN A MEMBERS THAT HAVE BEEN
WORKED ON WORKED ON TO HAVE
THE CHECKS AND BALANCES THAT
ARE THERE WE WORK WITH THIS
COMMITTEE WE WORK WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION AND WE WORKED
WITH OPPOSITION I'M TRYING
TO ENSURE THAT PEOPLE ARE
COMFORTABLE MOVING FORWARD I
BELIEVE THAT YOU ASKED ABOUT
WHY THE SIZE OF OF THE BEDS IN
THOSE THINGS THERE'S A GREAT
NEED IN OUR COMMUNITY DIRE
WARNINGS ARE THERE WE SEE THE
EPIDEMICS IN OUR COMMUNITY
SEEING PEOPLE THAT ARE TAKING
THEIR OWN LIVES THE FEEL THEY
HAVE NOWHERE TO TURN TO WE
NEED TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE
A RESOURCE A RESOURCE TO GET
HELP AND RESOURCES THAT ARE
THERE SO WE'RE GONNA LIMIT
-- CERTAIN THINGS AS FAR AS
A SIZE MOVIE FOR WITH THAT
WE'RE GOING TO SAY THAT THE
SITUATION IS IS NOT AS DIRE AS
OTHERS ARE SAYING WE NEED TO
BE ABLE TO GET MOVE MOVIE AS A
STATE OF CALIFORNIA DESTRUCTOID
DRESS THESE ISSUES AND THEN AS
BILLS MOVE FORWARD IN THE IN
THE ON THE REPORTS COME BACK
WE CAN FIND TO MOVING FORWARD
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL
THAT'S OUT THERE TODAY TRYING
TO GET RESOURCES ARE TRYING TO
GO PLACES AND ALL THE SOMEONE
THAT WENT BEFORE THEM ENDED
UP IT EITHER JUVENILE HALL OR
AT THE EMERGENCY ROOM IN THE
HOSPITAL I THINK AS A STATE OF
CALIFORNIA WE HAVE TO BE ABLE
TO MOVE FORWARD AND PROVIDE
THE SERVICES MOVING FORWARD AND
IT'S ALSO ABOUT THE DEFINITION
FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
TO THE STATE TO ENSURE THAT
THERE IS ADEQUATE -- FISCAL
STABILITY FOR THESE PROGRAMS
GOING FORWARD IS SOMETHING THAT
WE'RE PASSIONATE ABOUT WE'VE
SEEN SO MANY IN OUR COMMUNITIES
-- GO THE ROUTE AS FAR AS --
PARTAKING SO COMING TO SUICIDE
AND MENTAL HEALTH SO NOW WHAT
WE DO BELIEVE THAT THERE NEEDS
TO BE SUPPORT OUT THERE BUT
ALSO BELIEVE IN THE CHECKS AND
BALANCES THAT ARE NOW IN THIS
BILL CONSIDER THE RUSSELL YEAH
I'M SO I DON'T KNOW WHO COULD
COULD ANSWER THIS BUT AS YOU'RE
GOING INTO AN INCIDENT LIKE
KASKI MENTIONED THE SIZE THE
NUMBER OF BEDS I MEAN AND AND
THE THE PURPOSE OF THIS BILL
IS TO CREATE A LICENSING LEVEL
THAT DOESN'T EXIST THAT'S MY
UNDERSTANDING OF IT RIGHT IT'S
NOT GOING TO GIVE THE RESOURCES
BUT IT'S GONNA SAY HEY WE NOW
HAVE THE LEGAL WAY TO OPEN
UP THE SERVICES AND LOOK FOR
THE RESOURCES TO OPEN THEM
UP IN THAT PROCESS IS THERE
STILL ROOM FOR THE KINDS OF
ISSUES THAT WE'RE RAISING HERE
BECAUSE YOU KNOW RESTRAINT AND
SECLUSION AND SIZE AND NUMBER
OF BEDS AND WHO KNOWS I MEAN
I'M NOT THE EXPERT BUT THERE
MUST BE HUNDREDS OF THINGS
THAT NEED TO BE WHAT DO YOU
DO WITH WITH THE LANGUAGE --
ISSUES WOULD YOU BUY CULTURAL
ISSUES I MEAN THERE MUST BE
SO MANY THINGS THAT NEED TO
BE ADDRESSED THAT YOU KNOW
TODAY SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD
JUST HOPEFULLY IT'S JUST THE
BEGINNING THAT OF PUTTING ALL
THAT TOGETHER SO BECAUSE WHEN
I I KNOW I'M NOT I DON'T THINK
WAIT -- SO MY CUSK IS ARGUING
THAT THIS SERVICE ISN'T NEEDED
IT'S A QUESTION OF WHAT'S IT
GONNA LOOK LIKE WHAT'S GONNA
LOOK LIKE IN PROTECTION OF OUR
CHILDREN AND WE KNOW THAT THERE
ARE EITHER CURRENTLY IN OTHER
PARTS OF THE COUNTRY OR IN THE
PAST HAVE BEEN ABUSIVE -- AND
TREATMENT OF OUR KIDS SO THAT'S
I THINK WHAT WE'RE JUST TRYING
TO FOCUS IN ON THAT CERTAINLY
SO THE CALIFORNIA LICENSE
ON MY SERVICES I WOULD ADD
THAT WE -- IN THE BILL HAVE
OUTLINED IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
IDENTIFYING STAKEHOLDERS TO
BE PART OF IMPLEMENTING THIS
BILL SHOULD IT SHOULD BE SIGNED
-- WE SPECIFICALLY ACTUALLY
CALLED OUT -- ADVOCATES WHO
HAVE EXPRESSED CONCERN ABOUT
THE BILL -- AS WELL AS YOU
KNOW THE PARTIES THAT THAT
HAPPENED I'M TRYING TO PUSH
THIS BILL FORWARD SO THERE WILL
BE AMPLE AND IMPLEMENTATION
PROCESS SPECIFIC YOU KNOW
DOMAINS OF STAKEHOLDERS ARE
CALLED OUT -- YOU KNOW SO THERE
COULD BE ADDITIONAL YOU KNOW
GUARDRAILS PROTECTIONS THIS
IS YOU -- I'VE OUTLINED ADDED
TO THIS IS AS AS MISS WORK
OTHER QUESTIONS FACING NO
OTHER QUESTIONS ALL RIGHT BRING
BACK TO COMMITTEE I HAVE A
QUESTION INSTANCES JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE -- COMMITTEE DOWN
WITH LITTLE BIT YOU KNOW I
UNDERSTAND THAT THE HEARINGS
AND AND THE BILL PROVIDES
FOR BOTH SIXTY DAY AND THIRTY
DAY -- HEARING THAT CURRENTLY
HEARINGS JUVENILE COURT ARE
LARGELY CONDUCTED REMOTELY IF
AND THAT -- UNDER A BILL THAT
THAT I'VE ACTUALLY AUTHORED THE
ASSEMBLY AMENDMENTS BASICALLY
STOP ALL THOSE HEARINGS REMOTE
HEARINGS AT LEAST -- AS OF
JANUARY ONE JUST WONDERING
FROM THE ADVOCATES WHAT THE
IMPACT WOULD BE ON ON OF
THIS BILL BOTH WOULD COME
INTO EFFECT ON JANUARY ONE
ANYBODY HAVE ANY THOUGHTS MR
GALLAGHER THE OPPOSITION IS
THOUGHT AS A FORMER CRIMINAL
PROSECUTOR HERE IN CALIFORNIA
WHO ACTUALLY DID SOME DO
NOT PROCEEDINGS WE WOULD SEE
THERE'S ALREADY BACKWARD A
MAJOR BACKLOG CRIMINAL CASES
AS PER ADULT AND JUVENILES
SO IF YOU STOP DOING REMOTE
PROCEDURES REQUIRED EVERYTHING
IN PERSON THEIR COULD BE DELAYS
ON THE EARTH THAT'S WHAT I
WOULD SAY OKAY IF THAT IS YOUR
