Youth Confinement: The Whole Pie 2025

report thumbnail

On any given day, 31,900 youth in the U.S. are in confinement. Our report explains where they are held, under what conditions, and for what offenses. We show that youth in confinement — vastly disproportionate numbers of whom are Black and brown — are mostly in facilities that feel and look a lot like adult prisons and jails. And thousands are locked up pretrial, or serving time for minor offenses. Our report also offers a first-of-its-kind data table breaking down youth confinement by offense type in all 50 states.
