This bill reauthorizes titles II and V of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974, updating federal requirements for state juvenile justice systems. Key provisions include stricter limits on detaining juveniles for status offenses (non-criminal violations), requiring courts to hold hearings within 48 hours and limiting secure confinement to 7 days maximum, with a mandate to eliminate such detention by September 2028. The bill also restricts housing juveniles tried as adults in adult jails, expands eligible programs to address racial disparities and divert youth from the justice system, and enhances data collection and reporting requirements.
