Research Project:
Northwestern Juvenile Project is the first comprehensive large-scale longitudinal study of psychiatric disorders and risky behaviors in delinquent youth.  We are studying 1829 youth, recruited in 1995-1998, when they were first detained.  The study examines the development and persistence of psychiatric disorders; patterns of service utilization; and short- and long-term outcomes such as violent perpetration, violent victimization, HIV/AIDS risk and infection, and death.
