Girls In The Juvenile Justice System
On April 15, 2019, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) released this Juvenile Justice Statistics Bulletin. The bulletin addresses "girls in the justice system" and presents statistics from three data sources on their involvement from arrest through residential placement. The graphics and charts contained in the bulletin work to illustrate the latest data, highlight trends and characteristics of girls in the juvenile justice system, as well as the system's response to these statistics . . .
