INTRODUCTION
This plan for community education and executive and staff development concerning the Young Offenders Act was prepared for the Council by Mr. Bryan Loucks in December of 1982 through funding provided by the Soli- citor General of Canada. Minor revisions to the plan, based on responses from member organizations, were made. At its meeting in February of 1983, the Council dis- cussed and accepted the plan. Bryan Loucks is a non-status Indian. He is a former member of the board of directors of N'Amerind Friendship Centre in London, Ontario. He is currently serving as chairman of the Native People's Resource Centre and is also studying towards a Master of Education Degree at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. In the past, he has worked as a research consultant at Trent University and for a variety of Native organiza- tions, such as the Walpole Island Treaty Research Centre, the Union of Ontario Indians and the Ontario Indian Education Council. He is the author of two previous studies for the Council: Justice-Related Children and Family Services for Native People in Ontario.

ACT YOUNG OFFENDERS EDUCATION PROJECT
The Ontario Native Council on Justice, in conjunction with the Ontario Regional Office of the Department of the Solicitor-General have identified the need to develop an integrated plan for staff development and community education around the Young Offenders Act, designed specifically to meet the particular needs of Native people in Ontario. One individual will be employed by the Council over the period of five weeks and will: 1. Consult with staff and other representatives of Native political and service delivery organizations located in Kenora, Timmins, Thunder Bay, Delaware and Toronto as to the needs of their associations concerning community education and staff development relating to the Young Offenders Act and the cost involved in meeting those needs; 2. Identify potential participants in Community education and staff development sessions;
3. Identify possible resource persons who could be used in community education and staff development sessions; 4. Identify appropriate locations for community education and staff development sessions; 5. Develop an appropriate time table and general methodology for community education and staff development; 6. Submit a final report by December 23, 1982 which will have two components: one which outlines the findings of the community consultation nrocess; and the second in the form of a detailed plan and budget for submission tothe Council and to the Consultation Centre and/or appropriate provincial agencies. 2
HIGHLIGHTS OF BILL C-61, THE YOUNG OFFENDERS ACT
It is expected that Bill C-61, The Young Offenders
Act will be proclaimed into law in the fall of 1983. Full application of the new age limit of 18 will be inaugurated in
1985, thus allowing for a two-year transitional period. The Young Offenders Act will replace the outdated Juvenile Delin- quents Act. The Juvenile Delinquents Act viewed a young person who committed an offence "not as a criminal but as a mis- directed and misguided child" (S.38) requiring "help and guid- ance and proper supervision." (S.3) The new Young Offenders
Act, on the other hand, has a number of very different under- lying principles or philosophies:
- that young people should be held more responsible for their behavior but not whol/y accountable since they are not fu/ly mature; - that society has a right to protection; - that young people have the same rights to due process
of law and fair treatment as adults and these rights must be guaranteed by special safeguards.
In particular, the policy section states: * Young people should bear more responsibility for illegal acts they commit, although they will not be held account-
able in the same way as adults are. * In order to protect society from such illegal behaviour, young offenders may require supervision, discipline and
control.
* Young offenders have special needs because they are dependents at varying levels of development and maturity. They therefore also require guidance and assistance. * fTaking no measures or taking measures other tizanl* the
formal court process should be considered for a young
offender, as long as such a solution is consistent with the protection of society.
* Young people have rights and freedoms, including those stated in the (Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms or]* in the Canadian Bill of Rights. In particular they have:
- a right to participate in deliberations which affect them - a right to the least interference with their freedom which is compatible with the protection of society, their own needs and their families' interests.
- a right to be informed of a// their rights and freedoms. * Young offenders should only be removed from their families when continued parental supervision is inappropriate. The
Act recognizes the responsibility of parents for the care and supervision of their children. Parents will be en- couraged and if necessary required to take an active part
in proceedings that involve their children.
- Highlights The Young Offenders Act, Solicitor General of Canada, 1981 (* Revisions as passed by the House of Commons May 17, 1982) 4
The Act covers only those young people charged with specific offences against the Criminal Code and other Federal
statutes, not offences against provincial statutes and munici- pal by-laws. It also states that a child below the age of 12 will no longer be considered accountable under Canadian law. The maximum age of criminal responsibility under the Young Offenders Act is set at 18. Unlike the Juvenile Delinquents Act, the new law
would provide for both the specific right to counsel and for
instruction of rights at all stages in the legal proceedings.
The new legislation would formally recognize and sanction the practice of diversion (taking no measures or measures other than the formal court process) and an expanded range of sentencing
alternatives together with the increased usage of assessments and predispositional reports. A wide range of sentencing dispositions are geared to meet the needs of juveniles and to take into consideration
the rights of the victims of crime. The dispositions are: - absolute discharge, - fine to a maximum of $1,000,
- a restitution or compensation order for actual
loss or damage to property, loss of income or special damages arising from personal injury,
- order for compensation in kind or by way of
personal service, - community service order, 5
- probation to a maximum of two years - committal to intermittent or continuous custody (not to exceed two years), - provision for reasonable additional conditions (e.g. order of forfeiture of illegally possessed goods, prohibition of firearms). Many of the sentencing alternatives will only be available where the courts and the communities have sufficient interest and resources.
In contrast to the Juvenile Delinquents Act which allows open-ended dispositions, the new Act specifies that sentences must be for a definite,length of time not exceeding two years, although for serious offences sentences can go as high as three years. The judge will retain the responsibility to speci- fically determine the nature and length of disposition, i.e., length of probation or the use of a custody disposition, length of stay and whether custody will be "open or secure" custody. There will be a mandatory review by a judge at the end of one year of all custody dispositions that exceed one year. Upon request by offender, parents or the province, any time consequence disposition i.e. probation or custody dis- position, can be reviewed by a judge after six months. Under the new Act, the records of a young offender will be destroyed and he or she given a "fresh start" once a sentence is completed and no further offences are committed for a qualifying period. 6
This uninterrupted crime-free period will be two years for those who receive summary convictions and five years for the indictable offences. 7
INTRODUCTION TO THE NATIVE YOUNG OFFENDER IN ONTARIO
Native young offenders account for an alarmingly disproportionate share of Ontario's young offender population and the costs involved in their care:
- Although Native people account for two per cent of the total population in Ontario, six to seven per cent of the male admissions and 11-12 per cent of the
female admissions under the age of 18 to the Ontario Correctional facilities were Native people during the
period April 1, 1981 - March 31, 1982. (A. Birkenmayer, Ministry of Correctional Services, June 1982.)
- According to Mr. Robert MacDonald, Deputy Minister with the Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services, it will cost his ministry $80 Million in one-time
capital costs and $40 Million a year in operating ex- penses to include 16 and 17 year olds within the meaning
of the Young Offenders Act. (London Free Press,
May 5, 1982.) - Based on current ratios of Native young offenders to inmate population,* approximately $2.8 Million (7 per
cent of $40 Million) per year for operating expenses would be required to handle Native young offenders 16 and 17 years old.
* The author recognizes the simplistic nature of these cal- culations but nevertheless it does give a perspective on some of the financial costs involved for Native young offenders. 8
- As of June 30, 1980 approximately 10 per cent of
the children between the ages of 12-15 under pro- bation supervision across Ontario were Native children. (Juwmile Information System, Community
& Social Services, 1980.) - At Cecil Facer training school in Sudbury, during the 1981 calendar year approximately 45 per cent of the student population were Native offenders. (Al Johnston, Senior Administrator, Cecil Facer School, 1982.)
Dr. Don McCaskill, Trent University, Peterborough, in his paper, Patterns of Native Criminality (1974), stated:
It would appear that a profile of the typical native youth offender would include: a community of origin which is economically impoverished, an unstable familu background, a high degree of contact with social service agencies (particularly white foster homes), limited knowledge and participation in Indian affairs, a low degree of Indian culture and a great sense of alienation from the mainstream society. Dr. McCaskill found that the large majority of training school wards interviewed had a long history of family instability with over 50 per cent not living with their families at the time of their committal to training school. Fifty-eight per cent stated that their parents were not living together, with half feeling that at least one of their parents had a drinking problem. Over 50 per cent had lived in foster homes before coming to training school. According to the recent survey, The Native Inmate in Ontario (1981) prepared by the Ontario Native Council on Justice and the Ministry of Correctional Services, 80 per cent 9 of the inmates sampled admitted that alcohol contributed to their first difficulties with the law and only 22 per cent of the inmates in the sample had permanent employment during the year prior to their incarceration. Significantly, the study showed 37 per cent of the recidivists were first con- victed as juveniles and the average age at first conviction was 16.5 years.
Clearly, the present situation is not merely a series of isolated incidents of Native young people getting into trouble. As C.P. LaPrairie and C.T. Griffiths state:
The issue of native Indian juvenile delinquency cannot be ignored. Birth rates for 7,zative Indians are nearly twice the national average, migration from reserves to urban areas continues to increase and the structural conditions for native Indian juveniles are not improving...If, as the Young Offenders Act policy suggests, "young offenders have special needs because they are dependents at varying levels of development and maturity" in what ways are we prepared to aldress the "special needs" of native Indian juveniles?

METHODOLOGY
The process during this project included a number of steps. The following is the methodology used.
1. Identify and speak to contacts ONCJ staff, indivi- duals within Associations regarding project-- approaches to planning. Selection of individuals based upon familiarity with project area, avail- ability, functicin.
2. Based upon direction provided, approach Association Presidents regarding project.
During the first week the project was extremely lucky to attend an Executive Meeting of the Chiefs of Ontario. At that time, I was able to meet informally with:
(1) Grand Chief Wally McKay - Anishnawbe-Aski
(2) Grand Chief John Kelly - Grand Council Treaty #3 (3) Mr. Joe Miskokomon, President - Union of Ontario Indians (4) Mr. Gord Peters, President - Association of Iroquois and Allied Indians (5) Mr. Duke Redbird, President and Mr. Tom O'Connor, Vice-President of Ontario Metis Association. 1 1
This opportunity allowed me to briefly introduce the project and to identify staff people or represen- tatives with whom I could work on the Project. With- out this meeting, it would have, undoubtedly, taken
weeks to have made these contacts and receive direction necessary for continuation of the project. Contact
with other presidents of member associations was made as aspects of the project moved ahead.

CONSULTATION - BACKGROUND
Within the Member Associations of the Ontario Native
Council on Justice there is a general, positive and supportive climate for doing useful work in the area of the Young Offen- ders Act - education and development. There was recognition that information alone at the community level would not be enough. Some training and skill development would be required in order to ensure the groundwork for community sentencing al- ternatives and additional education could be started in keeping with the Young Offenders Act's principles of individual, parental and community responsibility.
The degree to which this work can be carried out co- operatively or in an integrated fashion is yet to be determined.
This is, in part, due to the developmental nature of the process but also due to some of the following factors: (1) There was limited time and resources available to plan this phase of the Young Offenders Act education project; (2) Each of the member organizations are operating with differing priorities, mandates and areas of jurisdiction. None of the organizations have staff or resources available who are specifically designated to work with the youth and justice-related activities; (3) Co-operation among organizations at a provincial level requires considerable lead-time in order that any political or jurisdictional concerns can be sorted out. This seems to be particularly true for work between the Indian Treaty organizations and the Native organiza- tions .e.g., Ontario Metis Association, Ontario Federation of 15
Indian Friendship Centres, etc. There has not been, as yet, an extensive history of co-operative action in any area between those two groups . of organizations.
Separate plans were developed with each association which incorporated their needs and concerns. In spite of the separateness of the plans and the obstacles described, there was a general recognition that the solutions to the problems facing young Native people and their families could not be solved in isolation. Co-operative planning and action is going to be re- quired in the future to address the problems. If an association cannot do it themselves, the responsibility has to be shared. 16
ANALYSIS OF ASSOCIATIONS' PLANS
Overview -
The eight associations' plans fall into five general cate- gories or phases. (For specific association plans see: Appen- dices A - H.) They include:
(A) Developmental
(B) Association Leadership
(C) Staff Education
(D) Community Resource People
(E) Community Education.
Dependent on an Association's infrastructure and constituency
needs, the plans include varying combinations of the above five
categories. Due to the emergent nature of some of the associa-
tions' plans, the complete financial costs associated with most
of the plans are yet to be determined.

(A) Developmental - Grand Council Treaty #3 and Anishnawbe-Aski were not in a position to outline definite plans with regards to Young Offenders Act education in their areas. For this reason, they felt it necessary to consult with their people before any further planning could be done. Both required a workshop to do this task. Resources Required:
(1) Grand Council Treaty #3 - Based on one three-day workshop. Resource Person - (Planning, Workshop and Follow-up) 10 days @ $200 per day $2,000 Travel Expenses - Toronto to Kenora return X 2 = $900.00 Other - 8 days @ $90 per day 720.00 1,620 Participant Expenses - 50 people @ $500 per person includes travel and expenses 25,000 Legal Resource Person - 3 days @ $300 per day to include research and preparation for workshop re: YOA -- Indian Act, Indian Government, Provincial Le- • gislature 900 Administration and Miscellaneous Expenses 1,500 Total $31,020

B. Association Leadership - All of the Associations, except for one, felt that the organization's leadership should have some form of presentation regarding the Young Offenders Act and the project itself. This phase is to use the Ontario Native Council on Justice resource people and others to aid in the presentation and to respond to any questions, concerns or advice regarding justice project activities. (1) Association of Iroquois and Allied Indians (i) Board of Directors Presentation Project Resource Person - 0.N.C.J. Pre-presentation planning, presentation

• Note - For this staff development workshop it may be feasible to integrate the 0.F.I.F.C. staff and A.I.A.I. staff. 0.F.I.F.C. has said this would pose no problems for it. A.I.A.I. would require some form of authorization. This workshop is designed to provide a fairly technical look at the Young Offenders Act legislation, its relationship to other legislation, roles, legal representation, appeals, assessments, community sentencing alternatives, etc. It may be a workshop where other Associations might consider sending participants particularly those who would be acting as legal resource people for the project. This may cut costs for the legal advice as much of the research and preparation for presentation could be done at this workshop.

The development of Community Resource People and Community Education Plans for most of the Associations is still in the early stages. In part, it is contingent on available financing and decisions made at the association leadership level and the development stage level. One of the major concerns is whether or not financing is available for the Young Offenders Act's 23
community resource people and community education stages. If not, it calls the whole project and its objectives into question. Can we justify the Young Offenders Act's Community Education Project if we only reach staff and those people in a position of Association leadership?
