Summary:
A look at the juvenile justice system in the United States and Canada covers such topics as what juvenile detention centers are like now and what they were like in the past, their purpose, and their effectiveness.
"The subject of justice for juveniles is not only a major issue for incarcerated teens and their families but also for society at large. This book explores the juvenile justice system from the home and neighborhood environments that often produce troubled teens to juvenile courts, detention facilities, and efforts at education and rehabilitation. Learn about the varieties of detention arrangements such as shelters, group homes, and foster homes and see what daily life in a juvenile detention facility is like. Juveniles Growing Up in Prison raises the hard but important questions: Are teen delinquents criminals, victims, or both? Should the goal be to punish or rehabilitate? This book offers perspectives on these and other difficult issues, considering both statistics and life stories. Juveniles Growing Up in Prison is valuable reading for all concerned with juvenile crime, detention, and the future of troubled young people's lives" --
