What are the implications of incarcerating youths?
When published in 2021, 1 in 3 incarcerated youths were receiving or needed special education. 71% of young people arrested before age 17 were rearrested within 3 years. Between suspensions, expulsions, and time incarcerated in a facility, these at-risk youths are missing instruction and are less prepared for the work force.
