Black youth are substantially overrepresented in both juvenile detention and foster care, comprising approximately 23% of foster care youth and over 40% of detained youth, despite representing only about 14% of the general population. This disparity stems from systemic issues, including racial bias, economic inequality, and stringent school discipline, leading to increased rates of removal from homes. ScienceDirect.com +4 Key Facts on Overrepresentation: Foster Care Disparities: Black children are 2.5 times more likely to be placed in foster care than their white peers.
