Quick Actions (Only for Validated Instructor Accounts):
Juvenile Justice: Policies, Programs and Practices is a student-friendly introduction to the U.S. juvenile justice system that includes practical, real-world information on issues of juvenile justice. The text presents the juvenile justice system as a social institution, focusing on its programs, policies, and practices, as well as possible careers in juvenile justice. The 6th edition discusses the impact of COVID-19 on juvenile crime, victimization, and adjudication; looks at the overall decline in juvenile crime rates over the last decade; and presents new material on Trauma-Informed Care. The Myth vs. Fact continues to debunk myths and common misconceptions about the juvenile justice system. And the Self-Checks provided throughout the book provide review questions meant to help students check their comprehension of concepts and reflect on what they read.
