Part II: PowerPoint Presentation

A. Explain whether you believe the program that you chose for your jurisdiction would also apply to the juveniles in Victor Rios's Punished, keeping in mind the jurisdiction (location) in Punished versus your jurisdiction. Explain why or why not.

B. Read through the report in the course textbook on p. 205 in Appendix B "5 Ways Law Enforcement Agencies Can Use Data on Juveniles." Out of these five strategies, choose the one that you think would be most effective for addressing the needs of the juveniles in Rios' book. Explain why you have chosen the strategy you did and how it applies to the juveniles in Punished

a. Does the same strategy apply to the program that you chose for your own jurisdiction? If not, which strategy would work the best? Explain.

C. What does Rios mean by the Youth Support Complex? Do you agree with his approach? Why or Why not? Does his approach work in the context of your jurisdiction?

D. After reading Punished, identify two recommendations to improve the program that you chose from your jurisdiction. This slide should clearly explain what the two recommendations are and why they are needed. You should cite information from Punished and from the textbook (Juvenile Justice) to explain your recommendations.
