The school system in Baltimore City has on -site childcare facilities in their high schools. Almost 1,000 babies Are Born every year as teenagers in Baltimore, it says in Children count. To be born under these conditions makes the way to a successful life very difficult. This growing trend, with students missing more than 20 school days a year, makes the matter further difficult. It is a distraction for teenagers to become mothers at this alarming speed. But so that a young father suddenly has to take care of a child Career in crime.

Here are four ways that we can improve the environment of Baltimore issuers and reduce youth crime in the city:

Community centers

Young people Baltimore need more safe places, especially in summer, where they can learn further. Community centers could channel their energies in a positive way. Computer laboratories are always a larger alternative to walking through the streets. These centers could also offer career paths that are missing for young African Americans in the city.

The Junior cadets of the Baltimore Police Department The program is another way to connect with young people at the social level that can create a bridge for greater commitment.

Reform of the Baltimore Juvenile Justice Systems

The practice of the detention of teenagers in large numbers in a single cell must come to a dramatic end. The entire youth court center must be inspected to comply with health code. Hard conditions inside always mean that the same perpetrators return to the street to commit more crime. Baltimore had a problem with repetition offenders, criminals who are already wearing ankle arm bands that commit more crimes such as carjacking. The system must be updated to prevent these repeat offenders from committing more offenses.
