Crucial Conversation Luncheon: Putting the Juvenile Back in Juvenile Justice
Thursday, February 26th, 2009
By Staff
North Carolina is one of only two states with antiquated juvenile justice laws that send 16- and 17-year-olds to adult prison for any offense however minor. Children who do not receive developmentally appropriate punishment and rehabilitative services are much more likely to go on probation with inadequate supervision or emerge from prison as better criminals than when they went in. It's time North Carolina considered a different approach to dealing with juvenile delinquents.
