Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
Dallas County Juvenile Department lacks a current public Emergency Operations Plan and has no mass-notification capability, gaps already flagged in a state investigation. Active TJJD inspection requirements and county emergency-management plan mandates elevate compliance and operational risk during critical incidents.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget hearing on September 8, 2026 is an immediate funding decision window, with both the emergency-management and employee notification initiatives already budget-aligned. Addressing these gaps now enables new leadership to demonstrate measurable operational improvements ahead of the next compliance review cycle.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The department operates a fragmented endpoint management environment with multiple overlapping tools running simultaneously, creating measurable inefficiency and elevated security risk. County-level cybersecurity mandates and the FY2026-approved Juvenile Infrastructure Modernization initiative signal both compliance pressure and active investment priority for remediation.
The opportunity
FY2026 budget approval and $22.586 million in authorized county IT commitments establish near-term funding capacity for this project. The Edward Byrne Memorial JAG Program—with a deadline of October 9, 2026—can fund criminal-justice IT improvements, including endpoint management and credential security, with an upcoming FY2027 budget hearing creating an immediate planning window.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The department must meet federal ADA web accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 Level AA) with no current content management or accessibility solution in place. This gap exposes the agency to compliance risk and limits equitable digital access for residents and youth served.
The opportunity
The federal ADA web accessibility deadline of April 26, 2027 creates a defined procurement window, with the FY2027 budget hearing on September 8, 2026 serving as the immediate funding decision point. Acting now allows the department to align remediation efforts with budget approval cycles and avoid last-minute compliance risk.

Fleet Safety · Juvenile Services
High Priority
About this project
The department transports youth populations without confirmed dash camera coverage or telematics, creating an unaddressed safety and liability gap. A countywide fleet modernization initiative and existing GPS/GIS infrastructure provide a foundation, but department-level visibility into vehicle safety remains unconfirmed.
The opportunity
Incoming leadership and an active countywide fleet modernization initiative create a timely window to advance this investment ahead of the FY2027 budget cycle. Cooperative purchasing agreements are available to streamline procurement, and the sensitive population served strengthens the case for prioritizing this project now.

Discuss this project →Document & Reporting Accessibility Remediation
ADA Compliance · Digital Accessibility
High Priority
About this project
The department currently lacks an identified solution for document accessibility, creating a compliance gap against the WCAG 2.1 AA mandate. With a federal ADA deadline of April 26, 2027, unaddressed remediation elevates legal and operational risk for staff and the public the agency serves.
The opportunity
The FY2027 budget hearing on September 8, 2026 represents an immediate funding decision window, and no incumbent solution requires displacement, simplifying procurement. Acting now ensures alignment with the federal deadline, supports data-driven reporting goals, and positions the department for compliant, equitable service delivery.
