Colorado Code
Part 11 - Sentencing
§ 19-2.5-1111. Sentencing - Community Accountability Program

Except as otherwise required by section 19-2.5-1127, the court may sentence the juvenile to participate in the community accountability program as set forth in section 19-2.5-1410. Such a sentence is a condition of probation for higher-risk juveniles who would have otherwise been sentenced to detention or out-of-home placement or committed to the department of human services. A sentence pursuant to this section is conditioned on the availability of space in the community accountability program and on a determination by the division of youth services that the juvenile's participation in the program is appropriate. In the event that the division of youth services determines the program is at maximum capacity or that a juvenile's participation is not appropriate, the juvenile must be ordered to return to the sentencing court for another sentencing hearing.
