This study explores perceptions and awareness of disproportionate minority contact (DMC) by stakeholders in juvenile justice, youth-serving community organizations, schools, social services, and the faith community. This study is derived from a statewide assessment, which included in-person interviews with individuals that have personal and professional relationships within the juvenile justice system. Findings support the contention that individuals are either unaware of the prevalence of DMC, have already formed prejudices about minority youth within the system, or do not appreciate the degree of importance DMC has on the development of minority youth.

Chapter 5 shows how the juvenile justice system perpetuates the traumatic experiences the respondents suffered in their homes. “Outsider masculinity” fulfilled multiple functions by allowing the young men to rationalize the violence they committed as well as the abuse and neglect they experienced at the hands of others. This chapter focuses on the unacknowledged abuse of these young men that took place at home and then in the juvenile justice system. Even as the juvenile justice system provides urgently needed social services, it furthers victimizes children.

This study examines the relationship between the degree of official intervention in the lives of juveniles charged with delinquent offenses and their diversion status. We draw upon official justice system data, data from a large diversion project that operated in eight counties, and data collected through field observations of the diversion program under study. Our findings show that the official intervention process is as intrusive for youth diverted out of the juvenile justice system for services as it is for those youth who are not diverted. Some part of the failure of one program on this reform goal may be explained by a general resistance to change among juvenile court officials, but it is clear from field observation data that the practices and professional ideologies of human services workers also contribute substantially to the failure.

Despite extensive research into juvenile justice interventions, there is a limited focus on family engagement, including parent–child experiences in these various programs. Even less research explores how families, specifically youth and parents, are affected by diversion from the traditional juvenile justice system. The current study fills this gap by drawing from in-depth interviews with 19 parents and 19 youths participating in a juvenile pretrial diversion program in Southern California. This research highlights how a diversion program can influence how families understand the justice system and law-related behaviors. The themes discussed include how diversion programs shape parent–child bonds, how parents navigate negative indictments of youth and themselves for participating in diversion, and the influence of external challenges and social forces shaping youth and parent experiences. Findings support the theoretical contributions from social bond and labeling theory. Implications and future research will also be discussed.
