Data Analysis Tools
With support from OJJDP, the National Center for Juvenile Justice has developed a family of data analysis and dissemination tools that give users quick and easy access to detailed statistics on a variety of juvenile justice topics. Two such data analysis tools provide access to data about youth in corrections:
- Easy Access to the Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement was developed to facilitate independent analysis of national data on the characteristics of youth held in residential placement facilities, including detailed information about the youth's age, sex, race/ethnicity, placement status, length of stay, and most serious offense. This data analysis tool includes a large set of pre-defined tables detailing the characteristics of youth in residential placement (age, sex, race/ethnicity, offense, type of facility, and placement status). Users can view profiles for a single jurisdiction or State Comparison tables. The CJRP data are collected biennially for OJJDP by the U.S. Census Bureau in odd-numbered years.
- Juvenile Residential Facility Census Databook was developed to facilitate independent analysis of national data on the characteristics of youth residential placement facilities, including detailed information about facility operation, classification, size, and capacity. Users can view profiles for a single jurisdiction or State Comparison tables. The JRFC data are collected biennially for OJJDP by the U.S. Census Bureau in even-numbered years.
