Research Development Proposal Form from Student Joe Willis

Type Research Hypothesis Here:

"Mandatory mental health evaluations and support units for juvenile offenders go a long way to helping reduce recidivism."

Why This Is Important:

Despite many young offenders released from their sentences never reoffending again, juvenile crime is still often considered to be a significant problem affecting our society. Some scholars suggest that antisocial personality disorder, major depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, or PTSD can play a part in voluntary recidivism among juvenile detainees (White, L. M. et al. 2016). Nonetheless, mental health assessments in juvenile correctional facilities and treatment services are typically inadequate. With mandatory requirements of offering programs for the mentally ill, these conceptions might have a likelihood of reducing recidivism. Research has proved that one can design a treatment and development plan that enables youths to change their behavior through therapy and practice exercises in learning new behaviors. As part of the evaluation of policy reform in mental health programs for juvenile justice, this proposal will examine the findings in the state and national databases on the outcomes of various programs.
