En el marco del proceso de adecuación provincial al nuevo Régimen Penal Juvenil, el Gobierno de MendozaTgQPHd|||[] dio un paso clave en su estructura operativa. A través de la publicación de la Resolución 4025 de la cartera de Seguridad y Justicia, el Ejecutivo dispuso la reorganización integral de las Unidades de Procedimientos y Abordaje de la Niñez y Adolescencia (UPANA), creando una conducción unificada que centralizará el accionar policial en todo el territorio mendocino.TgQPHd|||[]  
  
Hasta la fecha, estas unidades operaban de forma dispersa en diferentes puntos de la provincia. La nueva normativa establece la creación de una **Jefatura Provincial únicaTgQPHd|||[]**, que dependerá orgánicamente de la Subsecretaría de Justicia y estará comandada por un oficial superior de la Policía de Mendoza. El objetivo primordial de este cambio radica en coordinar las dependencias territoriales, unificar los criterios de actuación y profundizar la especialización del personal en intervenciones que involucren a niños y adolescentes.TgQPHd|||[]
