Juvenile Risk and Needs Assessment: Results from a Multi-State Study of Implementation, Case Processing, and Outcomes
Fri, Nov 16, 9:30 to 10:50am, Marriott, M104, Marquis LevelSession Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel
Abstract
The papers included in the panel come from a multi-state study of juvenile risk and needs assessment at multiple stages of the juvenile justice process funded by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. The study focuses on implementation; information usage and treatment/disposition matching; and official record and developmental outcomes. Data come from interviews (n=217) and surveys with juvenile justice personnel (n=1020); youth case records (n~4000); and follow-up surveys of justice-involved youths (n~125). The discussion of research results will focus on implications for better understanding the costs and benefits of these efforts and their impact on youth, local communities, the juvenile justice system, and state and national juvenile justice policy.
