Census of Juveniles in Residential Placement, 2010 [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 2010, the reference date was the fourth Wednesday in February. 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.

《居住场所青少年人口普查》（CJRP）首次由美国人口普查局于1997年代表青少年司法与犯罪预防办公室（OJJDP）进行管理。CJRP取代了自20世纪70年代初开始实施的《公立与私立青少年拘留、矫正和庇护设施普查》，亦称《在押儿童普查》（CIC）。与CIC相比，CJRP在本质上存在根本差异，CIC收集的是每个设施中青少年群体的汇总数据（例如，设施中的青少年数量），而CJRP则是每两年进行一次，收集居住设施中每个青少年的个人记录，以提供青少年在押的详细情况。CJRP要求美国各青少年居住拘留设施在指定参考日期描述分配床位的每位青少年。2010年，参考日期为2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数据。数据集中的每条记录，在提供青少年信息的同时，也包含了青少年所拘留的设施特征。因此，CJRP数据可以在青少年或设施层面进行分析。一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，或仅针对药物或心理健康治疗、受虐或被忽视儿童的设施。
