Homeless and Runaway Youth in the Juvenile Justice System
As part of the Collaborating for Change: Addressing Youth Homelessness and Juvenile Justice Project, the National Network for Youth has written this brief to document how runaway and homeless youth programs and juvenile justice systems are collaborating to jointly serve youth. The information presented here was collected in a survey of 38 Runaway and Homeless Youth (RHY) providers from across the nation and from targeted follow-up interviews
and discussions.
