Title: Juvenile Justice: DOJ Is Enhancing Information on Effective Programs, but Could Better Assess the Utility of This Information
Summary: State juvenile justice systems in the U.S. face critical problems when it comes to juvenile delinquency issues such as reentry and substance abuse. This report reviews juvenile reentry and substance abuse program research and efforts by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) to provide information on effective programs (i.e., whether a program achieves its intended goal) and cost-beneficial programs. This report addresses (1) expert opinion and available research on these types of reentry and substance abuse programs, (2) the extent to which OJJDP assesses its efforts to disseminate information on effective programs, and (3) OJJDP's plans to accomplish its research and evaluation goals.
