Abstract
One of the fundamental purposes of Pennsylvania's juvenile justice system is to develop "competencies" in delinquent youth. What does that mean? How is it done? The White Paper attempts to answer those questions, articulating basic principles and identifying research-support practices, outcomes and measures for competency development that conform to the Juvenile Act's language and purpose. The White Paper was the result of much debate among focus group participants under the auspices of the State Advisory Group.
