The Virginia Department of
Juvenile Justice has released the 2007 Data Resource Guide. First
published in FY 2001, the guide has become a key source of
information for those who work with system-involved children in
the Commonwealth. The document provides descriptions of key
programs and functions within the VADJJ, as well as demographic
information and other data on court-involved young people. The
information can be used to assess needs for the Commonwealth as a
whole, as well as specific localities. The guide can be viewed or
downloaded from the resources section of the Department of
Juvenile Justice's website at: http://www.djj.virginia.gov/.
