AI Summary
This bill requires the Tennessee Department of Children's Services to conduct a comprehensive study regarding the potential construction of a new juvenile detention facility in the western grand division of Tennessee. The study will focus on assessing the current and future detention and treatment needs of juveniles in that region. By January 1, 2026, the department must submit a detailed report with its findings and recommendations to two specific legislative committees: the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House committee responsible for criminal justice. The term "grand division" refers to one of Tennessee's three geographic regions (Western, Middle, and Eastern), which is used for administrative and planning purposes. The bill aims to help policymakers understand whether a new juvenile detention facility is necessary to better serve youth in the western part of the state. The legislation will take effect immediately upon becoming law, with the stated purpose of serving the public welfare by potentially improving juvenile detention and treatment services.
