Answer to Question 1

 Preventing juvenile delinquency means many different things to many different people. Programs or policies designed to prevent juvenile delinquency can include the police making an arrest as part of an operation to address gang problems, a juvenile court sanction to a secure correctional facility, or, in the extreme case, a death penalty sentence.
 These measures are often referred to as delinquency control or delinquency repression. More often, though, delinquency prevention refers to intervening in young people's lives before they engage in delinquency in the first placethat is, preventing the first delinquent act.
 Both forms of delinquency prevention have a common goal of trying to prevent the occurrence of a future delinquent act, but what distinguishes delinquency prevention from delinquency control is that prevention typically does not involve the juvenile justice system.
 Instead, programs or policies designed to prevent delinquency involve day care providers, nurses, teachers, social workers, recreation staff at the YMCA, counselors at Boys and Girls Clubs of America, other young people in school, and parents.
 This form of delinquency prevention is sometimes referred to as non-justice delinquency prevention or alternative delinquency prevention.
 Student views will vary.
