Abstract

Crossover youth are involved in both child welfare and juvenile justice systems. The Crossover Youth Practice Model (CYPM) promotes collaboration between these systems to inform decision making between the two agencies and better serve these youth. Yet, few outcome evaluations of the CYPM exist, especially those that assess outcomes beyond recidivism, such as case dispositions, case closure, or placement or living situations. This study examined whether the CYPM (n = 210) decreased recidivism and increased system/case responses and positive outcomes among youth within 9–18 months after the youth’s initial arrest relative to a comparison group of crossover youth (n = 425) who were arrested 1 year before the CYPM was implemented. Overall, the findings suggest that the CYPM in the jurisdiction under study dismisses or diverts crossover youth more often, closes delinquency cases more often, and leads to more home placements than was previously done in the jurisdiction, but it does not significantly reduce recidivism.

对跨界青年的回应:超越累犯结果的观察

跨国界青年参与儿童福利和少年司法系统。跨部门青年实践模式（CYPM）促进了这些系统之间的合作，为两个机构之间的决策提供信息，并更好地为这些青年服务。然而，很少有CYPM的结果评估，尤其是那些评估累犯以外结果的评估，如病例处置、病例结案、安置或生活情况。与CYPM实施前1年被捕的交叉青年（n=425）对照组相比，本研究检查了在青年首次被捕后9-18个月内，CYPM（n=210）是否降低了青年的累犯，增加了系统/病例反应和阳性结果。总的来说，研究结果表明，与以前在该管辖区所做的相比，研究管辖区的CYPM更频繁地解雇或转移跨性别青年，更频繁地结案，并导致更多的家庭安置，但它并没有显著减少累犯。
