An in-depth introduction to juvenile justice

The Juvenile Justice System: Delinquency, Processing, and the Law examines how young offenders are viewed, classified and guided. The authors take a critical eye to the stages of juvenile processing and current and historical responses to juvenile justice. They also examine how research has influenced policy. Examples of comparative juvenile justice raise the importance of focusing on reform and treatment.

The 9th Edition highlights evidence-based programs that have proven effective in preventing delinquency and treating young offenders. It looks at the Sanctuary Model^® and trauma-informed care as two new approaches to working with youth.
