REPORT ON THE CHILD OFFENDER IN THE FEDERAL SYSTEM OF JUSTICE

Authors

Fred R. Johnson, Michigan Children's Aid Society

Abstract

The Report concerning child offenders in the federal system of justice is a joint report for the National Commission on Law Observance and Enforcement and the White House Conference on Child Health and Protection. The study on which the report is based was conducted by Dr. Miriam van Waters, for many years the referee of the Juvenile Court of Los Angeles. Her choice to direct this study is to be commended. Not only was she in intimate contact with children who were offenders in California, but her experience in varied capacities has made her familiar with juvenile delinquency and its treatment throughout the United States, and her observations have been recorded in widely read volumes.
