- Summary:
- Sullivan (a circuit court judge in Florida) reflects on her own experience dealing with juvenile justice issues in the United States, describing stories and events from her career in order to illustrate the failures of a court system that has resulted in the United States being justifiably labeled the "incarceration nation" and to point to programs in the US and abroad that she argues provide for a smarter and a more humane approach to juvenile justice.
