Preferred term
behavioral health in youths in juvenile justice programs and settings
Definition
- Identifying the number of youth with behavioral health problems within the juvenile justice system nationally is difficult, in part due to varying definitions of the term mental health disorder (often used interchangeably with the term behavioral health disorder). However, one estimate is that approximately one in five youths in the juvenile justice system have a serious behavioral health problem.
