Abstract

America's youth are becoming more and more involved with crime, while juvenile crime rates are skyrocketing. As these crime rates increase, a need for better and more proficient means to detain and rehabilitate youth is apparent. juvenile boot camps were the solution that many professionals thought would be the best way to deal with this problem. As with all forms of incarceration and rehabilitation, which are employed by America's criminal justice system, the effectiveness and methods of operation of juvenile boot camps have been questioned. The purpose of this research is to show that juvenile boot camps are not always effective and cost-efficient enough to be solely used to solve the problem of juvenile delinquency in America. Several studies will be used to demonstrate this idea. A few methods and ideas of improvement on the effectiveness of juvenile boot camps will be suggested.
