Our Mission

To provide a partnership among juvenile detention centers that promotes effective programs to foster rehabilitation and reduce delinquency.

A Post-Dispositional sentence is imposed on a juvenile offender by a judge (usually in lieu of commitment to a state facility and with recommendations by a treatment team) for up to 180 days in a secure detention facility, during which time the juvenile must participate in facility based and/or community based services for his/her rehabilitation.

VDAPP is an organization comprised of Post-Dispositional coordinators that meet quarterly to share information pertaining to standards and best practices for juveniles sentenced to Post-D programs throughout the Commonwealth.

For more information pertaining about Virginia's Post-Dispositional Programs, including legislative history, statewide programs, standards, objectives and goals, check out the Post-D Powerpoint Overview.
