This resolution (SR 132) requires Louisiana's Office of Juvenile Justice to report to Senate committees on complaints, investigations, and lawsuits at six specific juvenile care facilities (including Acadiana Center, WARE Youth Center, and others) from 2020-2025. The report must detail incidents like assaults, sexual battery, and rape complaints; investigation outcomes; and settled lawsuits, itemized by facility and year. It must be submitted to the Senate Committees on Finance and Judiciary B by February 1, 2026. This is a transparency measure focused on facility-level data, not a policy change.
