Juvenile Diversion as Agency Policy: A Twenty-Year Perspective.
Seng, Magnus J.; Bensinger, Gad J.
Journal of Offender Rehabilitation, v21 n1-2 p165-82 1994
Examines a youth service bureau over a 20-year period, with a total client population of some 47,000 during this period. Findings indicate that this agency maintained its emphasis on diversion of juveniles from the traditional juvenile justice system not because of funding agency pressure, but because diversion is sound policy.
