Abstract
High prevalence rates of mental illness among adolescents in juvenile justice facilities require multifaceted interventions. Children entering justice systems are frequently underserved and having their first contact with psychiatric services. Programming must be multidisciplinary and multifaceted, combining treatment within the facility with postrelease planning. It examines the role of the psychiatrist and the structure of mental health services within juvenile justice facilities.Entities:
