Answer to Question 1

Answers should discuss the JJDPA that was amended in 1988 and how funding was set aside to develop strategies to reduce the proportion of minority youth in confinement. Confinement should not be greater than the minority population, in general, of that state. In addition, strategies were required to look at the entire system; not just confinement. States that did not comply would lose funding.

Answer to Question 2

 What is meant by the term success in probation and parole?
 What is meant by the term adequate supervision in probation and parole?
