Law Enforcement, Social Justice, and the Legacy of Milton Eisenhower

Abstract: The new policy advocated by the Eisenhower Foundation is well illustrated by the neighborhood, education, and employment opportunity extended to high-risk young people by the Dorchester Youth Collaborative in Boston. But such promising programs, and other state and local initiatives, require far more resources than they now are receiving from Washington. The challenges that lie ahead include continued deinstitutionalization of status offenders, reform of a correctional system in which minority youth are assigned to public institutions and whites are placed in private facilities, and effective control of handguns.
