Study Notes
Desmond Tutu Quote
- "Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world." - Desmond Tutu
Trauma-Informed Youth Justice
- Trauma is defined as a deeply distressing or disturbing experience, any out-of-ordinary event experienced as overwhelming.
- Trauma has two parts: an incident or ongoing incidents and an individual's experience of it (determines whether a person is traumatized).
- It's shocking, terrifying, and devastating, different from stress, resulting in feelings of upset, terror, shame, helplessness, and powerlessness.
- Trauma can lead to wrongdoing, and wrongdoing can lead to more trauma.
- Punishment can lead to trauma that can result in more wrongdoing.
- Up to 90% of young offenders have experienced some form of trauma in their childhood.
- Types of trauma include: domestic violence, neglect, poverty, sexual abuse, and colonization (in the case of Indigenous peoples).
- Young people struggling with overwhelming experiences often have mental health, substance abuse, and relational challenges leading to conflict with the law.
- Contact with the justice system can contribute more to future youth reoffending than discourage crime.
- A youth justice system based on punishment adds trauma.
- Seeing violence has a long-term negative impact on a child's brain and cognitive development.
- Exposure to violence during childhood is significantly correlated with negative outcomes like mental health issues and delinquent/criminal behavior.
- Trauma-informed youth justice doesn't eliminate consequences but asks what contributed to the choices made by the youth.
- Meaningful consequences for young offenders involve acknowledging the harm committed while supporting them through their challenges.
- An individual in restorative justice isn't punished for breaking the law, but for causing harm to people and relationships.
- A majority of young people who commit crimes do so because of trauma in their lives.
How Trauma Happens
- Understanding how trauma affects people is crucial.
- Trauma affects the brain, attachment, shame, and identity.
- Many traumas are collective, intergenerational, including colonization of Indigenous peoples, male violence, and domestic/sexual abuse.
- Many young people are traumatized by their experiences within the legal system, and this can lead them to reoffend.
- Victims of crime don't always feel satisfied with the current system.
Core Values for Trauma-Informed Youth Justice
- 6 Core Values: Critical thinking, human dignity, participation, peace, being who you are, and a holistic approach to addressing crime.
Empathy
- Do all people have empathy, and can it be taught?
- Some research indicates a decrease in empathy and a rise in narcissism among college students over the last 30 years.
- Some programs, like 'Roots of Empathy,' have seen a decrease in aggressive behavior and an increase in prosocial behavior in students.
Impact of Cybercrime on Young People
- Cybercrimes include sexual exploitation, encouragement of or invitations to sexual acts.
Impact of Social Media Use on Teens
- Social media use can negatively affect young people with distractions, sleep disruption, procrastination, online escapism, bullying, rumor spreading and unrealistic views of other people's lives (FOMO), and peer pressure.
- Studies show a link between three hours a day of social media use and a heightened risk of mental health issues.
- Another study found a connection between increased social media use and lower levels of anxiety.
