Juvenile Offenders+victims:99 Natl.rep.

This report offers the Congress, State legislators and other State and local policymakers, professors and teachers, juvenile justice professionals, and concerned citizens solid answers to the most frequently asked questions about the nature of juvenile crime and victimization and about the justice system's response. Citing FBI and other data sources, the Report demonstrates that the rate of juvenile violent crime arrests -- after peaking in 1994 -- has consistently decreased over the past several years. The Report also summarizes data on school violence and describes the recent downturn in the violent victimization of youth. Illustrated with dozens of color maps, graphs and tables.Snyder, Howard N. is the author of 'Juvenile Offenders+victims:99 Natl.rep.' with ISBN 9780160501357 and ISBN 0160501350.
