H.R. No. 171

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Juvenile justice professionals are gathering in
Austin on February 28, 2023, for Texas Juvenile Justice
Professional Day at the State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, One of the most advanced juvenile justice systems in
the nation, the Texas network is composed of 165 community-based
probation departments, which serve youth and families in all 254
counties of the Lone Star State in partnership with the Texas
Juvenile Justice Department; and
WHEREAS, The juvenile probation departments handle 100
percent of the referrals of young people to the juvenile justice
system each year through the efforts of more than 8,200 certified
juvenile probation and supervision officers, and departments
continue to provide services at the local level to 98 percent of
those referrals; and
WHEREAS, Every day, the dedicated men and women of the
juvenile justice system make a positive difference in the lives of
young Texans, helping them to embark on a better path, and in so
doing, they contribute to both the strength of their families and
the safety of our communities; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize February 28, 2023, as Texas Juvenile
Justice Professional Day at the State Capitol and extend to our
state's outstanding juvenile justice professionals sincere best
wishes for continued success in their important work.
