Title: Racial and Ethnic Disparity and Disproportionality in Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice: A Compendium

Summary: This report presents the content of a symposium entitled "The Overrepresentation of Children of Color in America's Juvenile Justice and Child Welfare Systems." The symposium included four panel discussions in which researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and advocates explored the barriers they encountered and successes they enjoyed in efforts to reduce disproportionate minority contact. Panelists included experts from jurisdictions that have begun to employ a multi-systems approach to reducing disproportionality and policy experts who explored ways to foster progress through legislation and other nationally supported activities.
