About this document
Juvenile Justice Challenges in the Philippines by Lesleigh Ochavillo Manginsay is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses juvenile justice issues in the Philippines in the early 1990s. Street children and juvenile delinquency were major problems, as youth were exposed to crime and criminal elements. Most juvenile delinquents were not segregated from adult criminals in prisons. This led many youth to reoffend after release. The author worked to address these issues by establishing a legal desk to provide legal assistance to youth offenders and advocate for improved juvenile justice systems and protections
