“…Education may be a particularly relevant risk factor for juveniles with learning disabilities. Quite often education deficiency, which is commonly associated with school dropout or delinquent behavior, is the most challenging issue among adjudicated juveniles (Peguero et al, 2019; Tan et al, 2018). Education may be particularly crucial for juveniles with learning disabilities, as learning disabilities are closely related to academic incompetency or school dropout among adolescents, and school dropout is one of the major contributing factors to delinquent or criminal behavioral among adolescents (Jarrett et al, 2014; Kliewer and Lepore, 2015; Morris et al, 2011).…”

This study examines recidivism among adjudicated juveniles in special education programs in the juvenile correctional facility during the period of 2009–2015. There were two aims of this research: to conduct exploratory analyses of recidivism and to examine whether level of education relates to recidivism among this segment of juvenile offenders. Results revealed that 37.6 % of adjudicated juveniles with special education recidivated and that 52 % of those who recidivated were recommitted within 12 months of being released. Results from logistic regression also show that education failed to significantly predict recidivism once other factors were controlled for in multivariate analyses.

The purpose of this chapter is twofold: explore problems in juvenile delinquency and derive a macrobarrier to change. Juvenile delinquents have histories and complex needs which are poorly understood by educators. A barrier is the failure to understand the needs of juvenile delinquents through the leader-member exchange. Understanding the plight of juvenile delinquents serves as the microcosm for the macrobarrier of absorptive capacity. Leadership is the driving force which defines absorptive capacity. Futures studies, not solutions rooted in the past, should define the second-ordered change necessary to improve online and remote work. Three futures are offered, and a framework to develop strategic thinking gives a path to improved learning outcomes.
