Title: Crossover Youth and Juvenile Justice Processing in Los Angeles County Summary: The term “crossover” refers to youth who are simultaneously involved with both child welfare and juvenile justice, presenting a variety of complex legal, jurisdictional, and service delivery challenges. Although crossover can go in either direction, meaning delinquent youth can become dependent youth and vice versa, this study focused on youth who had first entered the dependency system and then committed an offense that brought them to the delinquency system. This research brief describes the characteristics of crossover youth in Los Angeles over a period of three years, compares them to other youth in the delinquency system, and details the particular risks to which these youths are subject. Local courts, county child welfare agencies, state governments, and youth-serving organizations across the United States are currently struggling with how best to serve the relatively large number of youth simultaneously involved with both child welfare and juvenile justice systems.
