TY - JOUR PY - 1980// TI - Juvenile Victim Assistance Programs: A Proposal JO - Crime and delinquency A1 - Alcabes, A. A1 - Jones, Jennifer A. SP - 202 EP - 205 VL - 26 IS - 2 N2 - Teenagers face the greatest risk of criminal victimization, yet they are ignored as a target group by current victim assistance programs. The authors propose the provision of such services to juvenile victims as a means of reinforcing conventional standards of behavior. Attention to the victim's needs instead of the offender's transgressions may break the cycle whereby the exploited becomes the exploiter.
