BJS releases "Drug and Alcohol Use Reported by Youth in Juvenile Facilities, 2008?2018 ? Statistical Tables" [ [link removed] ]

A new BJS report describes patterns of drug and alcohol use among youth in juvenile facilities before they entered custody, including drugs or alcohol ever used and types of drugs used. It also provides findings on substance use disorder and alcohol use disorder among youth by their demographic and offense characteristics.

Statistics presented in the report are based on an alternative questionnaire given to 10% of youth in BJS?s National Survey of Youth in Custody in 2008?09, 2012, and 2018. The survey is part of BJS?s National Prison Rape Statistics Program.
