In addition to examining options for prevention and intervention, Juvenile Delinquency: Pathways and Prevention examines the critical roles that trauma, mental health, schools, and families play in juvenile delinquency. In addition to providing evidence-based strategies for deterring and rehabilitating young offenders, authors Christopher A. Mallett and Miyuki Fukushima Tedor draw on their extensive experience working with juvenile offenders to shed light on the nature of delinquency and the various pathways that lead to it. Students go beyond memorizing when topics are clearly explained and thought-provoking case studies are presented. This encourages students to think critically about juvenile delinquency and offer suggestions for improved procedures and regulations.
