Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement, 2001 [United States]

The Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement (CJRP) was administered for the first time in 1997 by the United States Bureau of the Census, for the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). CJRP replaced the Census of Public and Private Juvenile Detention, Correctional, and Shelter Facilities, also known as the Children in Custody (CIC) census, which had been conducted since the early 1970s. The CJRP differs fundamentally from CIC in that the CIC collected aggregate data on juveniles held in each facility (e.g., number of juveniles in the facility) and the CJRP, which is conducted biennially, collects an individual record on each juvenile held in the residential facility to provide a detailed picture of juveniles in custody. The CJRP asked juvenile residential custody facilities in the United States to describe each youth assigned a bed in the facility on a specified reference date. In 2001, the reference date was the fourth Wednesday in October. Characteristics of the facility, treatment services, and facility population were also collected. Each record in the data that provides information about a juvenile also includes the characteristics of the facility in which the juvenile was held. Therefore, the CJRP data can be analyzed at the juvenile or facility level. Some state and regional agencies provide CJRP data for more than one facility under their jurisdiction. The census was not sent to adult facilities or to facilities exclusively for drug or mental health treatment or for abused or neglected children.

《居住安置青少年普查》（CJRP）首次由美国人口普查局于1997年执行，旨在为青少年司法与犯罪预防办公室（OJJDP）提供服务。CJRP取代了自20世纪70年代初便开展的《公共与私人青少年拘留、矫正和庇护设施普查》，亦称《在押儿童》（CIC）普查。与CIC相比，CJRP在本质上有别，CIC收集了每个设施中青少年群体的汇总数据（例如，设施中的青少年人数），而CJRP，作为一种每两年进行一次的普查，则收集了居住设施中每个青少年的个体记录，以呈现青少年在押的详细情况。CJRP要求美国青少年居住拘留设施在指定参考日期上描述分配床位给每位青少年的情况。2001年，参考日期为10月的第四个星期三。同时，还收集了设施特征、治疗服务和设施人口状况。数据集中的每一条记录，在提供青少年信息的同时，也包含了青少年所被拘留的设施特征。因此，CJRP数据可以在青少年或设施层面进行分析。某些州和地区机构为其管辖下的多个设施提供了CJRP数据。普查并未发送至成人设施，亦或仅针对药物或心理健康治疗、受虐待或被忽视的儿童的设施。
