This is applicable to those awaiting trial or engaged in other legal processes that prosecute juveniles as adults in criminal court.

## Protocol skeleton

### Draft text, edit before use

Measures: Is this the last reporting period for which the award will have data to report?; Was there grant activity during the reporting period?; Which phase of the grant were you in during this reporting period?; If you were involved in the planning phase, describe what activities you completed during this reporting period.; If you were involved in the implementation plan phase, describe what activities you completed during this reporting period.; What is the target population that your program serves?; In which setting(s) does your program provide participants with services (case management, delivery of services, or facilitation of connection to services)?; Indicate if your Crisis Stabilization and Community Reentry (CSCR)-funded program serves individuals from any of the following criminal justice settings. Select all that apply.; What additional transitional services are CSCR grant funds supporting in whole or in part?; How many individuals do you plan to provide services to over the life of the grant?; Since the beginning of your grant, how many participants has your program served (cumulative)?; Out of the total number of participants your program has served since the start of your grant, how many are:; and 144 more listed above. Baseline: \_\_\_\_ months from award, using \_\_\_\_.
