According to the lady who gave the presentation saturday the rate of recidivation by young offenders is very low and extremely high with adult ofenders. I do not know the numbers.

I do not know where things stand on the budget, but I would encourage everyone to make sure that there are no cuts in Child Protective Services. This is a area that needs attention. There are  other areas that can be legitimately cut. One would be the prision budget. It costs a lot of money to keep people in prision. Except for those that are a danger to society and should never be released, it is questionable to keep people locked up for a long period of time. It may be fine for a short sentence as punishment, but there should be better ways to deal with those that are not a physical treat to society.
