Cook County Juvenile Court  

Definición

  • The first juvenile court was established in Cook County, Illinois, in 1899. After many social and legal organizations pushed for reform, children who were dependent or neglected as well as being delinquent were treated with a more rehabilitative rather than punitive approach.
