Which term refers to a program or department that serves juveniles under juvenile court jurisdiction and is operated wholly or partly by the juvenile board?

• A. Juvenile Justice Facility
• B. Juvenile Justice Program
• C. Juvenile Court Program
• D. Juvenile Services Unit

Answer: (B)

The main idea is identifying a program or department that serves youths under juvenile court jurisdiction and is overseen by the juvenile board. A Juvenile Justice Program fits this because it denotes an organized program or department handling services for juveniles under court oversight and operated wholly or partly by the juvenile board, reflecting both the service scope and the governance structure.

A Juvenile Justice Facility refers to a physical site where youths may be detained or housed, not a program operated by the board. A Juvenile Court Program suggests something tied to the court itself, but not necessarily under the juvenile board’s control. A Juvenile Services Unit implies a smaller subdivision within a larger agency, rather than a board-operated program serving court-involved youths. Hence, Juvenile Justice Program best matches the description.
