  • Chapter
  • First Online:

A complex nexus of risk and protective factors interact to impact juvenile delinquency and violent behavior phenomena. Effective prevention and intervention programming targeting salient risk and protective factors warrant the attention of policy makers, criminal justice administrators, educators, parents, communities, and others in the field of juvenile delinquency and violence prevention.
