King County is pleased to announce the first release of the Zero Youth Detention data dashboard.

The dashboard will show progress on the full range of efforts to achieve the goal of Zero Youth Detention.
This dashboard is a work in progress. The first release of the dashboard highlights data around juvenile detention and sets the stage for adding new measures. The process is iterative – the County and its partners will collaborate on definitions of success as strategies, policies, and practices get underway. Future releases of the dashboard will include measures and targets for analyzing the impact of this work toward achieving Zero Youth Detention.
