Hi I need help with my final project due this Sunday for my juvenile justice class. The instructions for the assignment are copied below and I will also attach the grading rubric for the assignment as well. The special topic I chose is female gangs, however, if you find one of the other topics more interesting you are welcome to choose that one instead.
Option #1: Juvenile Justice Special Topic Evaluation
Analyze a major problem facing today's juvenile justice system and evaluate in way in which the juvenile justice system has or has not addressed the problem. Propose a solution to the issue that you have selected.
Some possible topics for this project include:
Disproportionate minority confinement
Recidivism
Gang issues
Growing influence of female gangs
Drug use
Juvenile curfews
Zero tolerance policy for/with school searches
Socio-economic factors affecting delinquency
Parental liability for juvenile offenses
Your project must include:
An introduction to summarize and define your topic, including a clear statement of the problem or issue of concern
Summaries of current, relevant research from at least 6 credible sources (which can be found in the CSU-Global Library)
Discussion of the implications of proposed solutions for juvenile justice system
Your evaluation and conclusions regarding possible methods of managing or addressing the problem. You are encouraged to add your own opinions; however, those opinions should be carefully considered, logical, and supported by evidence or outside rationale.
