In 1997, Oregon lawmakers enacted legislation that required counties to convene local public safety coordinating councils (LPSCC) that would, at a minimum, develop and recommend to the County Board of Commissioners a plan for the use of state resources to serve the local offender population, and state and local resources to serve the needs of that part of the local offender population who are at least 15 years of age and less than 18 years of age. The plan must provide for coordination of community-wide services involving prevention, treatment, education, employment resources and intervention strategies. LPSCC's are also charged with coordinating local criminal justice policy among affected criminal justice entities.
