Assignment 2: Alternatives to Incarceration
Due Week 10 and worth 120 points
Recent study illustrates that nearly two (2) million juveniles are
processed through juvenile courts across the United States each year.

4. Depending on the nature of the crime, juveniles may face detention or
incarceration if they are convicted. Given the fact that many courts are
reluctant to incarcerate criminal offenders, judges often consider
alternatives to incarceration. The driving force behind these alternatives
is to save taxpayer money yet still demand offender accountability and
impose sanctions for criminal behavior.
Use the Internet or Strayer databases to research the use of sanctions
other than incarceration or detention for juvenile offenders.
Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:
1.Examine the underlying historical and economic reasons behind the
quest for alternatives to incarcerating offenders in jails and prisons.

support the response.
3.Discuss the significant societal and individual benefits of imposing
sanctions or punishments that do not involve removing an offender from
his / her family or community.
4.Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other
Websites do not qualify as academic resources.
