Title: Youth in prison
First published: 1997
Description: Youth in Prison tells the story of youths in a "model" juvenile prison program - a program created after a class action lawsuit for inhumane and illegal practices. It captures the lives of these youths inside and outside of prison, from drugs, gangs, and criminal behavior to the realities of families, schools, and neighborhoods. Youth in Prison is a book about all of us: those kept, those charged with their keeping, and the society that demands and condones this imprisonment.
