This book explores the nature of employee-on-youth misconduct, its extent, its consequences, factors that increase its occurrence, and potential solutions to the problem. A significant barrier to successful juvenile intervention is misconduct committed against juveniles by the persons employed to help them. Obviously, employee-on-youth misconduct interferes with the effective treatment of delinquent and at-risk youth, but it also harms the agency as a whole and creates a poor working environment for all employees.

This book offers a practical, theory-based approach to preventing or stopping such exploitation of vulnerable young men and women so that we can focus on effective approaches to rehabilitation, deterrence, and public safety.

Lee "Mike" Johnson is Associate Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice in the Department of Sociology at William Paterson University.
