Where We Are Now
Analysis
Why This Is Important
Tracking repeat offenders (recidivism)
is a core measure of how well juvenile
departments are at maintaining
community safety. Having low
recidivism demonstrates success at
identifying high risk youth and
providing the most effective
interventions.
How Much Does the County Influence This?
Having adequate law enforcement
countywide is essential to identifying
delinquent youth and our ability to
hold them accountable. County
funding for evidence based and “best
practice” interventions is essential to
ensure safe, healthy and secure
communities.
