“…Across the juvenile justice system, studies reported past year suicide ideation ranging from 19%-50%; in comparison to high school youth who ranged from 12%–16% (Kemp et al, 2021; Wasserman & McReynolds, 2006) (for a review see Teplin et al, 2002). This includes arrest populations, where an arrest experience was associated with suicide ideation among youth and young adults (Ahuja et al, 2021; Tapia et al, 2002). Worse general health is also common among arrested populations.…”

Drawing on juvenile justice and social determinants of health literature, this study examines the influence of three levels of justice system contact among juveniles – police stop, arrest, adjudication – on depression, suicide ideation, and general health in young adulthood. Mahalanobis distance matching utilizing National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health data test whether dosage of system contact negatively impacts health in young adulthood. Additional analyses compare within system contact differences to identify magnitude of health consequences for systems-involved individuals. Arrest and adjudication experiences as a juvenile negatively impacted at least one health outcome in young adulthood relative to those with no contact. Depression was significantly higher among those with an adjudication experience relative to those with an arrest experience. Results support further exploring juvenile justice system experiences as a social determinant of health.

“…Previous evidence indicated the significance of this age-specific maladaptive trait perspective for a better understanding of specific mental health problems in youth such as autism spectrum symptoms (De Clercq et al, 2010), obsessive-compulsive symptomatology (Aelterman et al, 2010), severe conduct problems (Frick et al, 2014) and relational aggression (Tackett et al, 2014). From this evidence, it can thus be hypothesized that such maladaptive trait perspective may also be valuable to gain a better understanding of individual differences in highly prevalent mental health problems in detained youth (Stathis et al, 2008), such as alcohol/drug use (Chassin, 2008), posttraumatic symptoms, anger/irritability, depression/anxiety, somatic complaints, and suicide ideation (Tapia et al, 2016;Wasserman et al, 2004).…”

The present study investigates the often observed higher scores on psychopathology in detained girls compared to boys from a maladaptive trait perspective, as conceived by age-specific criterion B assessment of the Alternative Model of Personality Disorders. Participants were detained youth (N = 237; 122 boys; 115 girls, mean age = 15.8 years) from two youth detention centers in Belgium, who completed self-reports on maladaptive traits and psychopathology.Results confirm that the higher rates of psychopathology in incarcerated girls extend to the maladaptive trait level, with particularly higher levels of Emotional Instability and Oddity. In addition, a stronger co-occurrence of psychopathology with maladaptive traits was found for girls, especially for anxious-depressed, angry-irritable and post-traumatic symptoms. These findings suggest that mental health problems in detained girls appear to be much more related to personality difficulties compared to detained boys, and advocate the inclusion of comprehensive maladaptive trait assessment and gender-sensitive intervention programs for mental health problems in detained youth.Keywords juvenile justice, adolescence, gender differences, mental health problems, maladaptive personality traits Note. * p< .01, according to the Bonferroni correction.

“…In addition, JJS-involved youth typically report histories of trauma and victimization (Abram et al, 2004, 2007; Ford et al, 2013), childhood maltreatment (King et al, 2011), suicidality (Abram et al, 2008; Tapia et al, 2016; Teplin et al, 2015), and self-injury (Chapman & Ford, 2008; Ford et al 2010). JJS-involved youth are vulnerable to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) because of their risky sexual activities (Donenberg et al 2015).…”

Juvenile justice systems of care: results of a national survey of community supervision agencies and behavioral health providers on services provision and cross-system interactions

Background Youth involved in the juvenile justice (JJ) system have high needs for behavioral health services, especially related to substance use and mental disorders. This study aimed to understand the extent to which elements in the cascade model of behavioral health services for JJ-involved youth are provided to youth by Community Supervision (CS) and/or Behavioral Health (BH) providers. In order to understand interactions across CS and BH systems, this study used a multistage probabilistic survey design to sample CS agencies and their primary BH service providers of substance use and mental health treatment in the United States. Parallel surveys were administered to both CS and BH providers regarding: characteristics of youth served, BH services available, whether services were provided directly and/or by referral, use of evidence-based practices (EBPs), and methods of collaboration, referral, and information exchange across CS and BH providers. Results The findings from weighted national estimates demonstrate that youth referred from CS to the BH programs represent a more severe sub-group of youth under CS supervision. There are established cross-system relationships for assessment and referral for substance use and mental health treatment, but less so for prevention services. Most CS programs refer youth to BH providers for these services, which typically utilize more highly trained staff to provide EBPs to a majority of the youth served. More intensive substance use and mental health treatment, aftercare, and recovery support services were limited in availability. Conclusions The findings suggest that although many elements in a cascade model of BH services for JJ-involved youth have been implemented within local systems of care through collaboration between CS and BH providers, there are several underdeveloped areas and potential for attrition across the service cascade. Greater attention to providing services to youth with higher levels of severity, aftercare services, and recovery support is warranted within a multi-systemic framework.
