The NCJFCJ Resolves to Reduce the Use of Solitary Confinement for Youth
Submitted by Carson Now Reader on Fri, 09/16/2016 - 9:21am
(Reno, Nev.) – The National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ) has released its resolution on reducing the use of solitary confinement for youth. No research exists that indicates solitary confinement reduces behavioral incidents or improves the safety of facilities. The NCJFCJ recognizes that juvenile court judges have a responsibility to care for and protect youth within their jurisdiction and therefore supports a presumptive rule or policy against solitary confinement of youth, except when absolutely necessary for the safety of the youth, others or the facility.
