dc.description.abstractProsecutors who work with youth have a difficult and essential job. Whether prosecuting a delinquency case or a child welfare case, a prosecutor’s decisions can potentially change the trajectory of a young person’s life. Prosecutors need ongoing training to help them develop best practices in juvenile court and keep them up to date on evolving topics such as adolescent brain development, risk and needs assessments, expanded juvenile court jurisdiction, and jurisprudence in child sexual abuse cases. The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) provides rigorous training and technical to increase the competency of prosecutors who work with youth.
