Youthful offender
(Special Offenders)
Characteristics of and intervention strategies for chronic youthful offenders are provided. Young chronic offenders' involvement with the juvenile justice system begins at the age of 12.1 years old (compared with their juvenile offending counterparts at 14 years old). Chronic juvenile offenders have six or more arrests and are more likely to have multiple offenses and/or a felony charge at first arrest. Youth with more than one arrest need to receive an appropriate disposition -- some consequence attached to their offenses. Adjudication should be used at first arrest. Other areas needing strengthening include placement location, family involvement, cultural sensitivity, continuity of care, education programming, and mental health services.
