The Juvenile Justice System by Renee Reed

The Juvenile Justice System provides students with an engaging array of articles that depict the complexities and nuances of the juvenile justice system from the perspective of a juvenile. Through this unique viewpoint, readers have the opportunity to explore an accurate portrayal of a child's first interaction with the law through potential incarceration and reintegration into society. The text also explores the potential factors and juvenile history that may lead youths down the road to criminal delinquency.

The text is organized into seven distinct units. Unit I features readings that provide students with an overview of the history and philosophy of the juvenile justice system in America. Unit II highlights judicial proceedings that have helped to establish juveniles' constitutional rights. Additional units cover the juvenile justice process, risk and protective factors, and restorative justice, prevention and early intervention, and various treatments. In Unit VI, the readings focus on issues related to juvenile incarceration and reentry. The final unit underscores current challenges in juvenile justice, including child sex trafficking, race relations, and cases related to LGBT youth.

Timely and essential, The Juvenile Justice System is an ideal supplementary textbook for courses in juvenile justice and corrections.
