OJJDP Fact Sheets on Juveniles in Court

You probably saw that the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) recently put out "Juvenile Court Statistics 2006-2007," compiled by the National Center for Juvenile Justice (NCJJ). Since not everyone will have the time to thumb through a 158-page report, so NCJJ also compiled four bite-sized fact sheets derived from the full report for your convenience:

• "Delinquency Cases in Juvenile Court, 2007";
   
• "Delinquency Cases Waived to Criminal Court, 2007";
   
• "Juvenile Delinquency Probation Caseload, 2007"; and
   
• "Person Offense Cases in Juvenile Court, 2007".

Check out John Kelly's post on this over at Youth Today, where he points out the stats that jumped out at him.
