WA HB1247

Limits placement in juvenile rehabilitation facilities to individuals under age 21 who were convicted as adults for felony offenses committed before age 18, reducing the current age threshold from 25 to 21

Requires the Department of Corrections to first determine the earned release date; only those with release dates before their 21st birthday will be transferred to the Department of Children, Youth, and Families custody

Removes the provision allowing individuals over age 21 to remain in juvenile facilities and eliminates the required placement reviews for those over 21

Modifies community transition services eligibility by removing the age 25-26 pathway and maintaining only the 60% term completion pathway with minimum 15 weeks confinement

Removes the provision requiring transfer to adult corrections for community transition violations occurring after age 25, reflecting the new age 21 cutoff
