Rebuilding Your Life and Getting on a Better Course

Unfortunately, the juvenile justice system in Colorado and elsewhere in the United States struggles to treat young offenders compassionately. Studies suggest that juveniles who undergo incarceration for crimes at an early age have a tendency to become repeat offenders (a.k.a "recidivists"). And the "peer environment" at juvenile facilities and jails often reinforces bad habits and destructive ways of thinking about behavior and interpersonal relationships.

Thus, if you are a parent or a caregiver who is concerned about the welfare of a juvenile who is in trouble, you likely want to do everything possible to help the youngster manage his or her issues and avoid potentially catastrophic long-term consequences. That's a serious challenge. But before you can effectively explore solutions, you need to deal with the imminent charges.
