Foreword
The format and presentation of the data in this report are intended to help summarize various juvenile court trends within the Commonwealth. In addition to the
graphs and charts, narrative is included to help readers more quickly recognize various statewide trends, as well as highlight information not reflected in the
visual displays.
The data within this year’s report are generally organized in a manner that reflect the chronological processing of juvenile court delinquency cases, from
allegation through disposition.
Some of the data are organized and presented in graphs by county class to help readers make comparisons across counties of similar size and demographic
composition.
Raw data for each of Pennsylvania’s 67 counties are available within the appendices.
The Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission (JCJC) is pleased to present the first edition of its Juvenile Court Annual Report. Prior to the publication of this
report, Pennsylvania juvenile court statistics were presented in a yearly series entitled Pennsylvania Juvenile Court Dispositions. The series, which ran
from 1972 to 2016, focused primarily on juvenile court dispositions. While the report was a valuable resource for juvenile probation departments, juvenile
court judges, and other agency stakeholders, it did not include several key indicators necessary to gauge the total workload of the juvenile courts or
juvenile probation departments.
This year, the annual report has been enhanced to include additional juvenile court statistics to better measure and quantify work across the state by
juvenile justice professionals. Specifically, information related to delinquency allegations received by each juvenile probation department is included. Key
indicators including the volume of allegations received, allegation sources, and the most serious alleged offense by youth are presented. This information
is critical to understanding who is coming through the “front door” of Pennsylvania’s juvenile justice system. It is anticipated this report will continue to
evolve over time, and will eventually include additional measures of juvenile justice workflow in Pennsylvania. Juvenile delinquency dispositions continue
to be summarized in this report, as in the past.
The JCJC would like to extend its deepest appreciation to the juvenile courts and juvenile probation departments across the Commonwealth. Without their
support, this report would not be possible. It is with great pleasure that we dedicate this report to the judges, probation officers, victim advocates, district
attorneys, defenders, service providers, and other professionals who work on a daily basis in the Pennsylvania juvenile court system.
Respectfully submitted,
Richard D. Steele Honorable Kim Berkeley Clark
Executive Director Chair

2 2017 Juvenile Court Annual Report
Chapter 1 - Incoming Cases
Section 1: Delinquency Allegations
1. The unit of count for this section is a written allegation. A written allegation is the document submitted by a law enforcement officer or other person to allege a juvenile has committed an act of delinquency. Multiple allegations may result in a single disposition. Allegations are synonymous with the term ‘case’ in the Pennsylvania Juvenile Case Management System (PaJCMS).
2. Written allegations in this section were filed with a juvenile probation department between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017.
3. In Pennsylvania, juvenile court jurisdiction extends over individuals who have been alleged to have committed a delinquent act, as defined by 42. Pa. C. S. § 6301 et seq., on or after their tenth birthday and prior to reaching eighteen years of age. Juvenile court supervision can extend until the individual is twenty-one years of age if the individual is currently under supervision. Age for purposes of this section was calculated from the juvenile’s date of birth to the date of the offense in the written allegation.
4. Data for this report were compiled from PaJCMS on April 6, 2018. The numbers published in this report, therefore, may not reflect current numbers
within the system.

Section 2: Secure Detention
In accordance with the Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission’s Standards Governing Secure Detention, all counties report their secure detention admissions
to the Commission. Detention information was extracted from the secure detention database at the Center for Juvenile Justice Training and Research,
which is populated with data reported directly from juvenile detention centers each month.
When interpreting the data contained in these tables, the reader should note the following:
1) The unit of count is the admission of a juvenile to a secure detention center.
2) A juvenile who is admitted to a secure detention center and subsequently transferred to another secure detention center without release is
counted as two admissions.
Codes Related to JCJC Standards Governing the Use of Secure Detention Under the Juvenile Act
Each month, all juvenile detention centers report a Statement of Facts and Reasons that must accompany every probation-authorized admission to secure detention. Below are the Section Codes related to this process.
100 Codes Circumstances under which secure detention may be authorized on the basis of an alleged offense or on the basis of an alleged
offense and the child’s current status with the court or prior record.
200 Codes Circumstances under which secure detention may be authorized on the basis of a child’s status as an absconder or fugitive; on the basis of a child’s record of failing to appear at previous juvenile proceedings; or because of extraordinary circumstances which require secure detention to prevent a child from absconding.
300 Codes Circumstances under which secure detention may be authorized on the written request of the child or child’s attorney.
400 Codes Circumstances under which secure detention may be ordered pending disposition, subsequent to a finding that a child
committed a delinquent act or is a delinquent child.
500 Codes Circumstances under which secure detention may be ordered following disposition pending transfer to placement.
600 Codes Circumstances under which secure detention may be authorized on the basis of the child’s status, pending or subsequent to a disposition review proceeding.

Secure Detention Admissions by Standard Section Codes, 2017
In 2017, the majority of secure detention admissions were authorized under the 100 and 200 Codes – 27.6% and 32.4%, respectively. This trend has
remained constant since 2013.
Special attention is given to the utilization of Codes 206, 701, and Unreported. In instances where secure detention is authorized under Codes 206 or 701, the
juvenile probation officer is required to provide a detailed written explanation of the reasons that necessitate secure detention. These codes were intended to
be utilized in limited circumstances where the other codes are not applicable.

16 2017 Juvenile Court Annual Report
Secure Detention Admissions by Standard Section Codes, 2013-2017 The utilization of Codes 206, 701, and admissions with an Unreported code accounted for 45.7% of all secure detention admissions in 2017. The utilization of Code 206
increased from 22.0% in 2016 to 22.4% in 2017, as did the use of Unreported codes from 14.6% in 2016 to 16.1% in 2017. The use of Code 701 decreased from 7.4%
in 2016 to 7.2% in 2017.
Code 206 - The child presents extraordinary circumstances
requiring secure detention to prevent him/her from absconding.
(Such circumstances may include, but are not limited to: the
child’s age, character, mental condition, ties to the community,
the nature of the child’s family relationships, drug or alcohol
addiction, and substance abuse.)
Code 701 - Circumstances under which secure detention may be
authorized on the basis of extraordinary and exceptional
circumstances.
The Unreported category, as shown in this report, indicates that
a code was not reported to the JCJC. Secure detention admissions
that are authorized without codes are not in compliance with
JCJC Standards.

Chapter 2: Juvenile Court Processing
Section 1: Delinquency Dispositions
1. The unit of count for this section of the report is the disposition. A disposition is defined as an allegation of delinquency disposed of by the juvenile probation department and/or the court. Any one youth may be involved in a number of dispositions within a calendar year containing multiple allegations. In addition, a youth may be referred on more than one occasion and receive only one disposition. Therefore, the reader is cautioned NOT to attempt to interpret dispositions as the number of youth who are processed by the court or the number of offenses. Dispositions in this section occurred between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017.
2. In Pennsylvania, juvenile court jurisdiction extends over individuals who have been alleged to have committed a delinquent act, as defined by 42. Pa. C. S. § 6301 et seq., on or after their tenth birthday and prior to reaching eighteen years of age. Juvenile court supervision can extend until the individual is twenty-one years of age if the individual is currently under supervision. Age for purposes of this section was calculated from the juvenile’s date of birth to the date of the offense in the written allegation.
3. Only the most serious delinquency offense is captured in the delinquency disposition data.
4. Data for this report were compiled from PaJCMS on April 6, 2018. The numbers published in this report, therefore, may not reflect current numbers within the system.
5. Dispositions of pending or deferred are not included in these statistics.
6. The unit of disposition count was modified this year to more accurately reflect the outcomes of delinquency allegations. If two allegations were disposed of on the same date, and resulted in the same disposition, these were counted as one disposition. If two allegations were disposed of on the same date, but had two different dispositions, these were counted as two dispositions. The reader is cautioned NOT to compare this year’s report to prior year’s disposition figures. All trend data was updated within this report using the updated disposition count logic.

Section 3: Race and Ethnicity
On the following pages, data on race and ethnicity trends related to juvenile court dispositions are provided. A few points of clarification regarding the
reading and interpretation of this data should be noted.
The Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission’s Center for Juvenile Justice Training and Research collects data on race and ethnicity from each of Pennsylvania’s
67 counties. The collection of this data is done in concert with the protocols outlined in Guidelines for Collecting & Recording the Race and Ethnicity of
Juveniles in Conjunction with Juvenile Delinquency Disposition Reporting to the Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission (National Center for Juvenile Justice,
2006). As such, race and ethnicity are collected and recorded as two separate and distinct sets of data.
Trends related to both race and ethnicity are presented within the following charts, graphs, and tables. References to racial or ethnic groups are defined
as follows:
White Non-Hispanic reported as Non-Hispanic for ethnicity and White for race
Black Non-Hispanic reported as Non-Hispanic for ethnicity and Black for race
Hispanic reported as Hispanic for ethnicity regardless of reported race
Other and Unknown reported as Non-Hispanic for ethnicity and one of the following races: Asian, Pacific Islander, Native Hawaiian, Native Alaskan, Native American or Multi-Racial; or race and ethnicity was reported as unknown
32 2017 Juvenile Court Annual Report
Total Delinquency Dispositions by Race and Ethnicity, 2017
In 2017, White Non-Hispanic youth represented the largest racial/ethnic category for all delinquency dispositions. However, in comparison to the
racial/ethnic distribution of all youth in Pennsylvania ages 10-17, the representation of Black Non-Hispanic youth is disproportionate: 14.1% of the total
population versus 37.1% of all delinquency dispositions. When excluding Philadelphia County and Allegheny County, Black Non-Hispanic youth represent
8.2% of the youth population, but 26.6% of all delinquency dispositions. Please see Appendix 25 for the number of delinquency dispositions by race and
ethnicity for each county.

New Allegation Placements vs. Disposition Review Placements, 2017
The following chart depicts the relative percentage of placements that
resulted from new allegations versus disposition review proceedings. A
disposition review is a hearing conducted by the court regarding a
previous disposition which did not result in out-of-home placement.
The percentage of placements resulting from both new allegations and
disposition reviews is shown for each county by county class.
Over half of delinquency placements statewide (55.9%) were ordered as
a result of a disposition review. This figure, however, was notably
influenced by Philadelphia, which accounted for 26.0% of all
delinquency placements statewide, and where 72.6% of all delinquency
placements were ordered as a result of a disposition review.
Across all other county class groups, the average distribution of
delinquency placements was nearly 50% from new allegations and 50%
from disposition reviews. Philadelphia, Allegheny, Class 2A, Class 5, and
Class 7 are the county class groups with a majority of delinquency
placements originating from disposition reviews.

41 2017 Juvenile Court Annual Report
Total Delinquency Placements by Type, 2017 Including Disposition Reviews
Beginning in 2016, the collection of delinquency placement-related data was enhanced within the Pennsylvania Juvenile Case Management System
(PaJCMS). All residential placement programs are now categorized by licensed service types, which are determined by 55 PA Code Chapter 3140. For the
purposes of this report, there are three overarching service types: Community Based, Institutional, and “Other”.
Community Based Category: • Community Residential
Service/Group Home • Foster Care • Supervised Independent
Living • Transitional Living
Institutional Category: • General Residential • Secure Residential • YDC Secure • YDC/YFC Non-Secure
“Other” Category: • CRR Host Home • Drug and Alcohol Program • Inpatient Mental Health • Residential Treatment Facility (RTF)
General Residential Services, Community Residential
Service/Group Homes, and Drug and Alcohol
Programs were the most frequently used programs in
2017, comprising 69.6% of all delinquency
placements.
Due to changes in PaJCMS classification of placement
service types in 2016, the reader is cautioned against
comparing this data to previously published (2015 and
earlier) delinquency placement data.

Outcomes of Delinquency Disposition Reviews, 2017
Although the majority of delinquency placements resulted from disposition reviews (see page 39), less than 1 in 10 disposition review proceedings
resulted in a delinquency placement. The vast majority of disposition reviews resulted in an order of Continued on Previous Disposition.
* The following counties had a total of 1,561 cases where the disposition was reported as deferred adjudication with no reported adjudication of delinquency at the time of disposition. These dispositions have been included in the disposition of Consent Decree (Adams-1, Bucks-1, Luzerne-6, Lycoming-2, and Philadelphia-1,551). **The “Other” category includes dispositions of Administrative Supervision Only/Collections, Other, Fines and/or Costs Ordered, Restitution Only Ordered, Informal Adjustment, Transferred to Criminal Court, Accepted Courtesy Supervision, Community Service Only, Transfer to Other Juvenile Court, Referred to Another Agency/Individual, Protective Supervision, and Warned and Counseled.
43 2017 Juvenile Court Annual Report
Outcomes of Delinquency Placement Reviews, 2017
A placement review is a hearing conducted by the court regarding a previous disposition which
resulted in out-of-home placement.

placement reviews and Transferred to Another Placement occurred in 7.3% of placement
reviews.
In the small percentage of placement reviews in which a transfer to another placement was
ordered, most transfers were to a community residential service/group home.
