(1) PROGRAM
REQUIREMENTS; VIOLATION OF CONDITION OF PARTICIPATION.
(a) A county department may provide an intensive supervision
program for juveniles who have been adjudicated delinquent and
ordered to participate in an intensive supervision program under
s. 938.34 (2r) . A county department that provides a program
shall purchase or provide intensive surveillance and communitybased treatment services for participants in the program and may
purchase or provide electronic monitoring for the intensive surveillance of program participants. A caseworker providing services under a program may have a case load of no more than 10
juveniles and shall have not less than one face-to-face contact per
day with each juvenile who is assigned to that caseworker, except
that the face-to-face contact requirement does not apply to a juvenile placed under par. (b) or (c).
(b) 1. Notwithstanding ss. 938.19 to 938.21, but subject to
any general written policies adopted by the court under s. 938.06
(1) or (2) and to any policies adopted by the county board relating
to the taking into custody and placement of a juvenile under this
subdivision, if a juvenile violates a condition of his or her participation in the program, the juvenile’s caseworker or any other person authorized to provide or providing intake or dispositional services for the court under s. 938.067 or 938.069 may, without a
hearing, take the juvenile into custody and place the juvenile in a
juvenile detention facility or juvenile portion of a county jail that
meets the standards promulgated by the department of corrections by rule or in a place of nonsecure custody designated by that
person for not more than 72 hours while the alleged violation and
the appropriateness of a sanction under s. 938.355 (6) or a change
in the conditions of the juvenile’s participation in the program are
being investigated. Short-term detention under this subdivision
may be imposed only if at the dispositional hearing the court explained those conditions to the juvenile and informed the juvenile
of that possible placement or if before the violation the juvenile
has acknowledged in writing that he or she has read, or has had
read to him or her, those conditions and that possible placement
and that he or she understands those conditions and that possible
placement.
2. Notwithstanding ss. 938.19 to 938.21, but subject to any
general written policies adopted by the court under s. 938.06 (1)
or (2) and to any policies adopted by the county board relating to
the taking into custody and placement of a juvenile under this
subdivision, if a juvenile violates a condition of the juvenile’s participation in the program, the juvenile’s caseworker or any other
person authorized to provide or providing intake or dispositional
services for the court under s. 938.067 or 938.069 may, without a
hearing, take the juvenile into custody and place the juvenile in a
juvenile detention facility or juvenile portion of a county jail that
meets the standards promulgated by the department of corrections by rule or in a place of nonsecure custody designated by that
person for not more than 72 hours as a consequence of that violation. Short-term detention under this subdivision may be imposed only if at the dispositional hearing the court explained
those conditions to the juvenile and informed the juvenile of that
possible placement or if before the violation the juvenile has acknowledged in writing that he or she has read, or has had read to
him or her, those conditions and that possible placement and that
he or she understands those conditions and that possible placement. A person who takes a juvenile into custody under this subdivision shall permit the juvenile to make a written or oral statement concerning the possible placement of the juvenile and the
course of conduct for which the juvenile was taken into custody.
A person designated by the court or the county department who is
employed in a supervisory position by a person authorized to provide or providing intake or dispositional services under s.
938.067 or 938.069 shall review that statement and either approve the placement, modify the terms of the placement, or order
the juvenile to be released from custody.
3. A juvenile may be taken into and held in custody under
both subds. 1. and 2. in connection with the same course of conduct, except that no juvenile may be held in custody for more than
a total of 72 hours under subds. 1. and 2. in connection with the
same course of conduct unless the juvenile receives a hearing under par. (d).
3m. Subject to par. (d), subds. 1. and 2. do not preclude a juvenile who has violated a condition of the juvenile’s participation
in the program from being taken into and held in custody under
ss. 938.19 to 938.21.
4. The use of placement in a juvenile detention facility or in
a juvenile portion of a county jail as a place of short-term detention under subd. 1. or 2. is subject to the adoption of a resolution
by the county board of supervisors under s. 938.06 (5) authorizing the use of those placements as places of short-term detention
under subd. 1. or 2.
(c) Notwithstanding ss. 938.19 to 938.21, but subject to any
general written policies adopted by the court under s. 938.06 (1)
or (2) and to any policies adopted by the county board relating to
the taking into custody and placement of a juvenile under this
paragraph, if the juvenile is in need of crisis intervention the juvenile’s caseworker may, without a hearing, take the juvenile into
custody and place the juvenile in a place of nonsecure custody for
not more than 30 days. This placement may be made only if at
the dispositional hearing the court informed the juvenile of that
possible placement or if before the violation the juvenile has acknowledged in writing that he or she has read, or has had read to
him or her, those conditions and that possible placement and that
he or she understands those conditions and that possible
placement.
(d) If the juvenile is held under par. (b) 1. or 2. in a juvenile
detention facility, juvenile portion of a county jail, or place of
nonsecure custody for longer than 72 hours, the juvenile is entitled to a hearing under s. 938.21. The hearing shall be conducted
in the manner provided in s. 938.21, except that the hearing shall
be conducted within 72 hours, rather than 24 hours, after the end
of the day that the decision to hold the juvenile was made and a
written statement of the reasons for continuing to hold the juvenile in custody may be filed rather than a petition under s. 938.25.
(2) RULES FOR INTENSIVE SUPERVISION PROGRAM. The department of corrections shall promulgate rules specifying the requirements for an intensive supervision program under this sec-

tion. The rules shall include provisions governing the use of
placement in a juvenile detention facility, juvenile portion of a
county jail, or place of nonsecure custody for not more than 72
hours under sub. (1) (b) and the use of placement in a place of
nonsecure custody for not more than 30 days under sub. (1) (c).
