Minors in the Utah Adult Criminal Justice System: Retrospective Characteristic Study

Study Dates: 2013

Study Description: UCJC conducted a retrospective study examining the characteristics (e.g., criminal history, gender, race, and recidivism) of juvenile offenders that enter the adult criminal justice system through either the Serious Youth Offender (SYO) or Certified Youth to the Adult System (CYAS). This study had two purposes:

1. Identify and examine any unique characteristics of this population
2. Determine the type of Juvenile Justice Services (JJS) interventions these youth received before entering the adult criminal justice system as a minor.
