Due Process Protections for Youth: Defense Counsel Policies and Disparity in the Juvenile Justice System: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Due Process Protections for Youth: Defense Counsel Policies and Disparity in the Juvenile Justice System" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This monograph illuminates the connections between juvenile defense policies and the racially disparate impact of the juvenile justice system. The limited data that exist on youth in the juvenile justice system consistently depict disparate contact and outcomes for black youth across the system. The broad rehabilitative goals of the U.S. juvenile justice system, along with the best interest legal standard of the child welfare system, muddle the protection of youth due process rights. States differ widely in their policies granting defense counsel, and many policies lack specific language for policies addressing notions such as appointment timing, duration of representation, waiver criteria, and role of counsel. Using a combination of legal and sociological research methods, this book examines the lack of specificity in the language of juvenile defense policies and connects the dots between this deficiency with the racially disparate impact of the system, contextualizing findings within a broader theoretical constructs of race and law. The author introduces common elements of juvenile defense policies, describes their impact, and makes suggestions for strengthening defense counsel policies. The book concludes with a call to action regarding expanded data-collection practices for juvenile delinquency courts. This book is essential reading for those engaged in youth and juvenile justice efforts and scholars interested in issues surrounding due process, race, class, social policy, and justice.

Routledge Studies in Juvenile Justice and Delinquency
Series editor David L. Myers
Juvenile justice matters are of critical concern in both the United States and around the world. Books in the Routledge Studies in Juvenile Justice and Delinquency series explore mechanisms, consequences, insights, and innovations in the field of juvenile justice and its responses to delinquency. Each monograph will examine new areas of empirical and theoretical inquiry, provide an agenda-setting discussion of important concepts and controversies surrounding juvenile justice and delinquency, and seek to encompass a transnational or global approach to the issues addressed. The series will be a resource for the international community of undergraduates, post-graduates, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers concerned with juveniles and families caught up in or at risk of engagement in delinquency and justice system involvement.

This monograph would not be possible without the decades of work by the National Juvenile Defender Center. I have immense gratitude for the entire National Juvenile Defender Center community, including Patti Puritz, MaryAnn Scali, Chris Northop, and especially Tim Curry, who generously provided feedback on a very early version of this project. Thank you to Jeremy Porter, Lucia Trimbur, and Jeff Butts for sharing your expertise of quantitative methodology, critical race theory, and the juvenile justice system, respectively. Nicole DiGeronimo and Doug Evansthank you for your assistance and guidance with this project. All my thanks to you all.
In the United States, the juvenile justice system addresses delinquent behavior by youth and operates separately from the adult criminal justice system. Each state maintains its own legal code for the jurisdiction and implementation of the juvenile justice system, but most states have similar structures and procedures for addressing delinquent behavior. The juvenile justice system in the United States has a history of rehabilitative rhetoricestablished by the Child Savers in the late 1800sthat distinguishes the juvenile justice system from the adult criminal justice system (Platt, 1969). The rehabilitative language of the initial state juvenile justice systems offers a starting point for identifying divergences from the rehabilitative ideal at the inception of the juvenile justice system and as it continuously develops, often exhibiting the punitive characteristics of the adult criminal justice system.
