Abstract

Although many youths violate norms and break laws, substantially fewer engage in more serious transgressions that lead to processing and sanction by juvenile courts. In this chapter, we review the psychopathology (including substance use disorders) of youth who encounter the juvenile justice system and spend time in residential placement. In addition to these major topics, we consider several issues including the role of assessment of juveniles, identification of risk and protective factors, and treatment planning and evaluation. Key concepts such as capacity for prevention and their challenges are discussed. We conclude by outlining several clinical research needs that may be of service to current and future practitioners.
