Abstract:
Profiles of adolescent female offenders in the literature suggest that these women have unique needs. Descriptions of selected characteristics and assessment considerations related to adolescent female offenders were synthesized from relevant research. Recommendations are discussed that propose changing educational programming in order to make curriculum, assessment, methods, and service delivery more responsive to the specific needs of these adolescents.
