Detention Cost Sharing is primarily the responsibility of Counties and the State Department of Juvenile Justice, however, Pre and Post Dispositional costs are charged back to parents (although Judges may waive or reduce the cost of care, if the parent demonstrates an inability to pay). Cost of care charges are statutorily mandated and are assessed at a modest $1.00 per day for Probation and Home Detention Supervision, and $5.00 per day for Secure Detention or placement in a residential commitment program. So a 50/50 split is fair. It already is split three ways.
