Abstract
Youth found incompetent to stand trial in U.S. juvenile courts may be ordered to attend Juvenile Competence Remediation Services to assist them in becoming competent to proceed with their case. Representatives from 19 community-based JCRS programs were surveyed about current norms and practices. The results suggest that programs routinely meet some emerging best practices (e.g., dyadic service delivery; developmentally sensitive services), but not others (e.g., providing case management services; services guided by outcome data). The results also reveal a lack of consistency across programs in a variety of areas (e.g., training and experience of providers; educational curricula used by providers).
