The Diana Screen is not a definitive screen; it is a screen to reduce sexual risk to children and teens. It should be used as one part of an agency’s overall application/interview/screening process. Screen-takers who receive a fail result may be referred for a comprehensive evaluation to determine if the result was a false-positive or if the individual is a true risk for sexual misconduct with children and teens. In order to assist youth-serving agencies in assessing an applicant’s risk of sexual misconduct and ability to observe sexual boundaries with children and teens. The approval of this purchase will benefit Williamson County Juvenile Services and the youth in the amount of $4,549.00 for FY24 Budget, Funding source 01.0100.0576.003011.
