Juvenile Justice System Outcomes Among Foreign-Born and Native-Born Latinos in the United States: An Exploratory Study

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

A growing body of research has identified a negative relationship between generational status and criminological outcomes such that foreign-born Latinos are significantly less likely to report offending, victimization, and drug use compared to their native-born counterparts. What has been explored to a lesser degree is the extent to which generational status impacts the experiences of Latino youth within the juvenile justice system.
