According to a recent Gallup poll, crime is the Nation’s number one concern. Law enforcement officials will attest to its growing dominance; crime victims can attest to its harsh impact on daily life. Accordingly, a new study with positive implications for delinquency and drug abuse prevention assumes added significance. By studying some 4,000 youth over a 5-year period, researchers have identified a pattern of causes or factors leading to delinquency -- some obvious, some not so obvious -- involving drugs, guns, peers, school, and family. They were able to chart specific behavioral pathways to delinquency.

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) has demonstrated a history of concern and action on the disproportionate representation of minority youth in secure correctional settings.

The decisions made by those who work in our Nation’s juvenile and family courts are inestimably difficult. During a recent lecture at the National College of Juvenile and Family Law in Reno, Nevada, the speaker asked if any of the judges present could recall rendering a decision in a case in which a dependent child had suffered injury or died in foster care. Nearly half of the men and women in the audience raised their hands. The speaker then asked who could recall a case in which they had ruled against substitute placement of an allegedly abused or ne- glected child, and the child had been further victimized or died while remaining in the care of his or her parents. Again, hands went up.

The anointing of Total Quality Management (TQM)1 and “reinvention”—the cluster of ideas described in Reinventing Government2—as the royal road to economic and political revitalization has sometimes led to over-expectations by those seeking quick fixes to long-term problems. Nonetheless, concepts such as TQM and reinvention have the potential to address many of the problems of the juvenile justice system, especially when integrated with the social development model3 and the work of the Balanced Approach/Restorative Justice (BA/RJ) group.4 Each of these approaches complements the other. Together, they can lead to change in the juvenile justice system, not the customary minor changes that come from periodically fine tuning our focus, but historic change that is profound and radical—a new paradigm.

To make a serious dent in delinquency, we must shift our focus from problem-focused (numerator) approaches to universal (denomina- tor) approaches. If young people are to develop attachments to society and to societal norms, they must be provided opportunities to participate, learn, earn, and serve their community and their country. A National Youth Service program is an effective way of providing all American youth constructive opportunities to make significant contributions to society and to be rewarded for them. Such a program is a prime example of a denominator approach to youth development.

In a democratic society, citizens’ expectations of government agencies are critically important. Unfortunately, within our juvenile justice system, community needs have been lost in the decade-long debate over the future of the juvenile court and the relative efficacy of punishment versus treatment. A number of politicians and policymakers argue for criminalizing our juvenile justice system through “get tough,” adult sentences for juvenile offenders. Some even advocate abolishing the juvenile justice system and its foundation, the independent juvenile court.
