A Sourcebook: Serious,
Violent
and Chronic Juvenile Offending
by James C. Howell
This indispensable sourcebook sculpts an alternative response to juvenile crime. The rise
of violent crimes committed by youths and the lack of effective responses to treating
juvenile offenders have underscored the dire need for a different approach. Some of the
most respected experts in juvenile justice answer that need in this authoritative volume,
presenting a balanced, humane, and effective strategy for change. The result is a
comprehensive approach to preventing, treating, and controlling serious juvenile criminal
behavior. Thorough analysis of strategy implementation comple-
ments discussion of core issues such as controlling delinquency, developing early and
intensive intervention programs, risk assess-
ment, and classification tools.
