Five Things about Youth and Delinquency
National Institute of Justice
Research and data on youth and delinquency is critical for identifying opportunities and developing strategies to support positive development through prevention and intervention. Responses to youth misbehavior by youth-serving systems -- including education, child welfare, behavioral health, and justice systems -- can play an important role in promoting or disrupting youths' healthy social and emotional development. The five findings in this report provide insights into the nature, scope, and context of youth and delinquency.
