Part 1

Primary Task Response: Your first task is to post your own Key Assignment Outline to the discussion area so that other students are able to review your plan.

(key assignment details )The state ( Maryland) legislature recognizes the need to focus efforts and resources on young offenders so that they do not continue to commit delinquent acts and perhaps transition to adult criminals, which would cost taxpayers even more. Acting as a state policy analyst and building on the annotated bibliography and literature review you have completed, propose 2 policy alternatives to combat juvenile delinquency.

Your readings in the course have exposed you to many of the key topics in criminal justice while showing you the importance of research and theories to the development of sound policies. You have seen how the writing in the text and other sources is not mere opinion or unsupported assertions. Rather, the work is built upon existing knowledge and contemporary studies.

As you consider how to advise the legislature on how to address juvenile delinquency in your state, you must rely on factual information and utilize a theoretical foundation. Delinquency, as well as other deviance, results from a variety of factors explained through various theoretical perspectives. One or more theories may draw your attention as instructive about the issues surrounding juvenile delinquency. Have these theories been supported by

major problem faced in the justice system is the increasing number of juvenile crimes and the
challenge of not having functional programs that help prevent further crimes or transitioning of
young criminals to adult criminals (Shoemaker, 2017). It is, therefore, necessary to come up with
the right actions, where the funding resources will found and the challenges that will likely to be

There will be two main programs that we will implement to ensure that juvenile
