    Summary: Safe Alternatives To Segregation Initiative

    Safe Alternatives to Segregation Initiative (2016) states that before the juvenile is sent to solitary confinement Indiana calls the Crisis Awareness Response Efforts team (CARE). CARE advocates “staff shadowing” which places staff side by side with the youth for the day. A CARE team member should remain calm, speak in a low voice, maintain patience and personal space while also being objective. It is important to allow the youth time to think on their actions and if they want to continue their disruptive behavior. The purpose of the CARE team is to not discipline but to assist the youth in calming down and establishing a safe and secure environment (Safe Alternatives to Segregation Initiative, 2016).…

    Juvenile Justice Reform Case Study

    A number of challenges currently face the juvenile justice reform efforts. Therefore if my state governor appointed me to a task force to help reform juvenile justice, the ten issues I would identity in need of reformation would include, mental health, youth in child welfare, closing the loophole on status offenses, juvenile indigent defense, probation, keeping kids out of adult jails, addressing racial disparities, group homes and halfway houses, day treatment programs and wilderness probation programs. The issue with mental health in juvenile justice is that over two thirds of the youth involved with the juvenile justice system experience some form of mental health problems (Smith, 2017). Each year over 2 million youth come into contact…

    Informing the public of what is happening to the incarcerated youth can help prevent any more arrests within the community.

    Ethical Issues In Juvenile Justice

    The juvenile justice population has a high rate of inmates with mental disorders. In the last few decades, mental illness diagnoses have greatly increased. Many ill youths enter the criminal justice system and are put into juvenile detention centers, the juvenile justice system’s version of jail, due to their disruptive behavior (Holman & Ziedenberg, 2006). Many troubled youth and their families do not have access to local mental facilities, or proper medication to aid them. Poor access to resources can greatly increase tensions, puts strains on families, and even can be physically threatening.…

    The Importance Of Juvenile Justice

    There are a myriad of services available, some more prevalent than others however, that is why it is crucial to place the youth within the right facility to ensure they will receive the care they direly need. First, one type of program that is presented by Macomber et al. , (2010) is educational programs. These researchers found that if a juvenile has successful schooling, then this can be positively correlated with future employment and not re-offending. Sadly, within this research it was presented by OJJDP (1994), that the actual educational opportunities that are delivered are not at the standard where they need to be, and there is significant room for improvement (Macomber et al.,…
