Mental health concerns among juvenile-justice-involved youth (JJIY) continue to be a major health crisis in the United States (US). While scholarship has explored mental health concerns among JJIY, and the link to negative life outcomes, there are gaps in the existing research, particularly in effective interventions and models aimed at addressing both the mental health concerns and criminogenic risk contributing to recidivism and other negative life outcomes of this population. In this paper, we present Justice-Based Interdisciplinary Collective Care (JBICC), an innovative framework to address both the mental health needs and delinquent behavior of youth offenders. The model bridges community partners, with the purpose of informing future interventions, implementations, and research in this area. Increased justice-based interdisciplinary collective collaboration between the juvenile justice system and community programs/organizations would be a major benefit to youth offenders and their families. We also focus on the need for cultural responsiveness to be interwoven throughout all aspects of treatment. JBICC offers an opportunity to expanded services outside traditional settings and methods to ensure that youth offenders and their families receive validating and culturally responsive access to services.
在美国,青少年司法涉案青少年(JJIY)的心理健康问题仍然是一个主要的健康危机。虽然学术研究已经探讨了 JJIY 的心理健康问题及其与负面生活结果之间的联系,但现有研究仍存在差距,特别是在针对导致累犯和该人群其他负面生活结果的心理健康问题和犯罪风险的有效干预措施和模型方面。在本文中,我们提出了基于正义的跨学科集体关怀(JBICC),这是一个创新的框架,旨在解决青少年罪犯的心理健康需求和不良行为问题。该模型将社区合作伙伴联系起来,旨在为该领域的未来干预、实施和研究提供信息。增加青少年司法系统与社区计划/组织之间基于正义的跨学科集体合作,将使青少年罪犯及其家庭受益匪浅。我们还关注在治疗的各个方面都需要融入文化响应能力。JBICC 为扩大传统环境和方法之外的服务提供了机会,以确保青少年罪犯及其家庭能够获得有效的、具有文化响应能力的服务。
