Can JDAI reduce the confinement of status offenders?
JDAI reduces confinement of status offenders both by developing objective admissions policies that often preclude their admission and by establishing reasonable alternatives to secure custody. And, since virtually every place in the country has already succeeded in this task, it is clearly possible to implement alternatives that are more effective and less costly than detention. The processes of detention reform can be invaluable in helping officials see these realities and implementing these changes.
