The youth division has specific areas of responsibility in addition to the investigation of offenses. These include: the suppression and prevention of delinquent and criminal behaviour by youths (...), the processing of youth arrests (...), the surveillance of amusement parks, recreation centers, schools (...) Some departments avoid the disagreeable connotation of crime by calling their "delinquency-prevention division" a "juvenile division" or a "youth division". 1, record 1, English, - youth%20division
