Project Background
In Milwaukee and other places around the country, electronic monitoring is used as an alternative to sending juveniles to detention centers. The belief is that electronic monitoring along with effective use of the YASI assessment tool will allow for suitable intervention to prevent juveniles from reentering in the system.
Project Description
Risk assessments are used heavily in the juvenile system to determine what actions will be taken towards the juvenile. They are used by scoring the juveniles risk of re-offending and based on the risk level, judgement, intervention and detention. However, there has been no research for Milwaukee County's use of the scores and if using YASI accurately allows for correct intervention of the juvenile.
