A significant proportion of the US young people are currently involved in the juvenile justice system. Of all youth in the United States, approximately 21% suffer from a diagnosable mental or substance use disorder that causes at least minimal impairment. This estimate is likely 2-3 times higher for youth who enter the juvenile justice system. A continuum of services for mentally ill juvenile offenders is critical to assisting youth to reintegrate into their schools and communities. This article provides recommendations to school health professionals to assist with the reentry of mentally ill, post-incarcerated youth.
