The text addresses special populations of juveniles that pose significant problems to the juvenile justices system.
Assume you were writing a proposal to a city or state administrator to address one of the special populations identified in our text (e.g., early starters, juvenile gangs, or juvenile sex offenders) and explain why juveniles in the this category must be treated outside the normal juvenile delinquency programs.
What are the benefits to this program in addressing the special population?
What is the measure of effectiveness for these programs?
Why will this program be effective countering the problem addressed?
