Bulletin Describes Youth Residential Placement Survey

October 16, 2008

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) has published “Introduction to the Survey of Youth in Residential Placement.”

The Survey of Youth in Residential Placement (SYRP) joins the Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement and the Juvenile Residential Facility Census in OJJDP's constellation of surveys providing updated statistics on youth in custody in the juvenile justice system.

The bulletin, the first in a series, describes SYRP's design and methodology. Subsequent bulletins will discuss survey findings.
