- Summary:
-
The Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974 attempted to make a coordinated effort to improve the juvenile justice system. Its emphasis was on attempting to prevent juvenile delinquency rather than reacting to it after the fact. The status offender was to be removed from the traditional juvenile system; but the juvenile court system itself was to insure that those who committed crimes of violence or were repeatedly criminal in their conduct received quick and sure punishment. This hearing deals with two bills, S. 1021 and S. 1218, which would amend the Juvenile Justice Act in a number of respects, as well as reauthorize it. Testimony from a range of interested persons covers current practices in dealing with juvenile offenders from a variety of viewpoints. (Author)
