Title:	Gender injustice : system-level juvenile justice reforms for girls
Authors:	Balck, Annie Sherman, Francine T
Keywords:	Juvenile justice;Social conditions;Children;Girls;Perpetrators;Youth
Year:	2015
Publisher:	National Crittendon Foundation
Notes:	"Despite decades of attention, the proportion of girls in the juvenile justice system has increased and their challenges have remained remarkably consistent, resulting in deeply rooted systemic gender injustice. The literature is clear that girls in the justice system have experienced abuse, violence, adversity, and deprivation across many of the domains of their lives—family, peers, intimate partners, and community. There is also increasing understanding of the sorts of programs helpful to these girls. What is missing is a focus on how systems—and particularly juvenile justice systems—can be redesigned to protect public safety and support the healing and healthy development of girls and young women."
