Equality of justice in juvenile cases sparks ABA study

The American Law Association report finds females under 18 face discrimination in the justice system with 74 percent of arrested and confined girls charged with status offenses like disobeying parents and running away. The Female Offender Resource Center, aiding ABA’s national program, notes girls are more often incarcerated and receive fewer services than boys though their offenses are less serious. The 1905 federal funds data show little female focus in juvenile projects, urging equal treatment for juvenile delinquents regardless of sex.
