Counting Latino Youth in the Illinois Juvenile Justice System

Research Report

The report details the inadequacy of information on Hispanic youth, who constitute one of the fastest-growing segments of the population, and highlights this lack of data as a major barrier to developing strategies and policies that can effectively prevent young Latinos from becoming caught up in the justice system. Panelists will discuss the problems posed by the insufficient data and review recommendations offered in the report.
