JJIS Annual Reports

The Juvenile Justice Information System (JJIS) Steering Committee publishes a series of annual reports prepared by the JJIS Data and Evaluation Committee, the JJIS Reports Team, and the Oregon Youth Authority's Research and Evaluation Unit.

The intent of these reports is to aid in the overall planning, development, and evaluation of programs designed to reduce juvenile crime.

Youth and Referrals

Youth and Referrals reports contain statewide and county-specific data describing offenses committed by youth and the characteristics of the youth committing those offenses.

Reports for the current reporting year are listed below; click here for an archive of previous years' youth and referrals reports.

Recidivism

Recidivism reports include statewide and county-specific measures of recidivism based on the measurement of criminal activity as a gauge of community safety.

The definition of recidivism for this report: “As a measure of public safety, recidivism is defined as a new criminal referral.

A criminal referral is a law enforcement report to a juvenile department alleging one or more felony or misdemeanor acts (offenses).”

The 12-month report selects youth who had a criminal referral in a calendar year and tracks them for the following 12 months. In order to track all youth who had a referral for a full 12-month period, the report requires complete referral data through December 31 of the following year.

The 36-month report selects youth who had a criminal referral in a given year and tracks them for the following 36 months.
