Abstract
This Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) and Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) bulletin provides an overview of juvenile violent victimization. The data in this bulletin are derived from three datasets— the National Crime Victimization Survey, the National Incident-Based Reporting System, and the National Vital Statistics System. The bulletin examines juvenile violent victimization from 1995 to 2018. The OJJDP funded this analysis to provide practitioners and researchers with recent information about the characteristics of both juvenile victims and juvenile victimizations, and how these variables change over time.
