Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003

Sexual Violence Reported by Juvenile
Correctional Authorities, 2005-06
By Allen J. Beck, Ph.D., BJS Statistician,
Devon B. Adams, Policy Analyst,
and Paul Guerino, Statistician
The Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (P.L. 108-79)
requires the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) to develop
new national data collections on the incidence and prevalence of sexual violence within adult and juvenile correctional facilities. This report fulfills the requirement under
Sec. 4(c)(1) of the Act for the collection and reporting of
data in juvenile facilities.
In July 2005, BJS published Sexual Violence Reported by
Correctional Authorities, 2004 (NCJ 210333), detailing the
results from the first-ever national survey of administrative
records on sexual violence in adult and juvenile correctional facilities. This report provides the findings from surveys conducted in 2005 and 2006 in juvenile residential
placement facilities only.
BJS, with the Governments Division of the U.S. Census
Bureau as its collection agent, conducted the 2005 Survey
of Sexual Violence (SSV) between January 1 and June 15,
2006, and the 2006 SSV between January 1 and July 31,
2007. These surveys of state juvenile correctional systems
and local or private juvenile facilities were designed to
measure the number of reported incidents of youth-onyouth sexual violence and staff-on-youth sexual misconduct and harassment. The surveys provide an understanding of what corrections officials know, what information is
recorded, how allegations are handled, where incidents
occur, and how officials respond to allegations brought to
their attention.
The surveys also collected detailed information on substantiated incidents. Items included the circumstances
surrounding each incident, characteristics of victims and
perpetrators, the type of physical force or pressure used,
victim injuries, and sanctions imposed.

The administrative records surveys were not designed to
rank systems or facilities. During 2007, BJS completed
development and testing of methodologies for the National
Survey of Youth in Custody (NSYC) that rely on reports of
victimization provided directly from youth. These methodologies utilize self-administered surveys that offer anonymity
for victims to report their experiences. The survey will be
administered using audio computer-assisted self interview
procedures. Youth will use headphones to follow audio
instructions and a touch-screen to interact with a computerassisted questionnaire. When NSYC is completed by
yearend 2008, these methodologies are expected to
provide the data needed to permit reliable facility-level
comparisons.
In 2004, BJS developed uniform definitions of sexual violence. Incidents of youth-on-youth sexual violence were
classified as either nonconsensual sexual acts (the most
serious violent forms of sexual assault) or abusive sexual
contacts (less serious, but unwanted). Incidents involving
staff were separated into staff sexual misconduct (any act
of a sexual nature directed toward a youth) or staff sexual
harassment (repeated verbal statements of a sexual nature
to a youth). For this report, all such incidents are considered sexual violence. (See Methodology for detailed definitions.)
Detailed tabulations of the results of the 2005 and 2006
SSV surveys are presented by state systems and sampled
facilities in appendix tables 1a through 5d, available on the
BJS web site at http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/
svrjca0506.pdf.

2005 and 2006 surveys covered all state systems and a
representative sample of local and private facilities
The surveys included all state-operated juvenile systems.
In addition, a representative sample was drawn from locally
and privately operated facilities. Entire systems were
selected to maximize reporting coverage. Local and private
facilities were sampled to ensure at least one in each state
and with probabilities proportionate to the number of youth
assigned beds at the time of the last facility census. (See
Methodology for a description of sampling procedures.)
As enumerated in the most recent Juvenile Residential
Facility Census (JRFC), there were 2,746 locally or privately operated juvenile facilities in 2004.1 Altogether, the
administrative surveys covered 279 local or private facilities
in 2005 and 330 in 2006, which met the requirement of
sampling not less than 10% of facilities covered under the
Act.
More than 2,000 allegations of sexual violence reported
each year in juvenile facilities
Reports of sexual violence varied across state juvenile systems. Every state except Montana, New Hampshire, and
Wyoming reported at least one allegation. Among sampled
local or private facilities, 87 (of 262 participating facilities)
reported an allegation in 2005 and 100 (of 309 facilities)
reported an allegation in 2006. (See Methodology for the
list of non-participating facilities.)
Taking into account weights for sampled juvenile facilities,
the estimated total number of allegations for the nation was
2,047 in 2005 and 2,025 in 2006 (table 1). Expressed as
rates, there were 16.7 allegations of sexual violence per
1,000 youth held in juvenile facilities in 2005 and 16.8 per
1,000 in 2006.
The rate of allegations of sexual violence in state juvenile
correctional systems was more than 5 percentage points
higher than the rate in local or private facilities in 2006 and
slightly less (nearly 4 points higher) in 2005. These differences were statistically significant at the 95% confidence
level in 2006 but were not significant in 2005. (See Methodology for calculation of confidence intervals.)

About 36% of the reported allegations of sexual violence in
state juvenile systems and local or private juvenile facilities
involved youth-on-youth nonconsensual sexual acts; 21%
involved youth-on-youth abusive sexual contacts; 32%
involved staff sexual misconduct; and 11% involved staff
sexual harassment (table 2).

staff-on-youth. The observed rates of substantiated incidents of sexual violence were higher in state juvenile systems (3.7 per 1,000 youth) than in local or private juvenile
facilities (2.7 per 1,000 youth), but this difference was not
statistically significant.

About 1 in 5 allegations of sexual violence were
substantiated
Allegations of sexual violence were classified as—
• substantiated, if they were determined to have occurred

The rates of substantiated incidents of sexual violence
were higher in juvenile facilities than in adult prisons and
jails. In 2005 and 2006, juvenile administrators reported 3.0
substantiated incidents per 1,000 youth. This rate was
higher than the number reported in publicly operated local
jails (0.52 substantiated incidents per 1,000 inmates) and
state prisons (0.46 per 1,000) during 2006.2 In part, these
differences may reflect the impact of state and local laws
that specify that all sexual acts involving youth below certain ages are nonconsensual. In every state, facility staff
and administrators are also required by law to record all
allegations and report them to law enforcement authorities
and to child protective services. Differences between rates
of sexual victimization in adult and juvenile facilities may
largely be the result of more complete reporting of incidents
and more thorough investigations when incidents of sexual
violence involve youth.

• unsubstantiated, if the evidence was insufficient to make
a final determination that they occurred
• unfounded, if they were determined not to have occurred
• investigation ongoing, if a final determination had not
been made at the time of the data collection.
Upon completion of an investigation, 38% of youth-onyouth and 46% of staff-on-youth allegations of sexual violence were determined to have been unfounded (table 3).
Another 40% of the youth-on-youth allegations and 35% of
the staff-on-youth allegations were unsubstantiated. A total
of 21% of youth-on-youth allegations and 18% of the staffon-youth allegations were substantiated.
Overall, there were 732 substantiated incidents of youth
sexual violence in juvenile facilities (table 4). An estimated
437 incidents involved youth-on-youth and 295 involved

Juvenile authorities provided detail on 90% of
substantiated incidents
Juvenile administrators were asked to provide detailed
information on each substantiated incident of sexual violence. Using a separate incident form, the 2005 and 2006
surveys obtained incident-based data, allowing for an indepth analysis of sexual violence. Data included details on
the circumstances surrounding each incident, characteristics of victims and perpetrators, type of physical force,
threat of force, pressure used, sanctions imposed, and victim assistance provided.
Incident-level data were reported on 660 of the 732 total
substantiated incidents (90%). A total of 17 substantiated
incidents were missing from state reports, including 7 from
Nebraska, 4 from Hawaii, and 2 from Illinois. An additional
55 (weighted) incidents were missing due to the lack of incident-level reporting by 15 sampled local or private juvenile
facilities. Since most systems and facilities reported fully,
there was no evidence of any selection bias among the 660
incidents.
Across all state systems and local or private facilities, incidents of youth-on-youth sexual violence accounted for
nearly two-thirds of substantiated incidents (table 5).
Approximately equal percentages of these incidents were
reported as voluntary sexual contact between youth (22%),
unwanted touching for sexual gratification (21%), and nonconsensual sexual acts involving force or pressure (21%).
Sexual misconduct accounted for the greatest percentage
of incidents involving staff (28%), while sexual harassment
accounted for the smallest percentage (8%).

violence were more likely to be female (51%) than victims
of youth-on-youth sexual violence (27%). Nearly 60% of
the victims of youth-on-youth sexual violence were age 15
or younger compared to 16% of the victims of staff sexual
violence. Victims of staff sexual violence were typically
older (65% age 16 or 17 and 19% age 18 or older) than
other victims.

• More than half (54%) of the victims were white, compared to 35% of all youth in juvenile facilities nationwide.
• Among victims of sexual violence, 33% were black and
11%, Hispanic; however, among all youth held in residential placement or juvenile correctional facilities in
2006, 40% were black and 20%, Hispanic.
• About 46% of victims were age 16 or 17, which was not
statistically different from their representation among all
youth held (52%).
Victims of substantiated incidents of youth-on-youth sexual
violence were more likely to be male (73%) than victims of
staff-on-youth violence (49%). Victims of staff sexual

Data provided on substantiated incidents revealed that—
• Nearly two-thirds (64%) of the victims of sexual violence
in state systems and local or private facilities were male
and a third (36%) were female (table 6). Females were
overrepresented among victims because at the time of
the most recent census in 2006, they represented 15%
of youth in residential placement.3

4 Sexual Violence Reported by Juvenile Correctional Authorities, 2005-06

Most sexual violence occurred outside the victim’s
room and in the evening
More than 60% of victims reported that sexual violence
occurred in a location other than their room or dormitory. A
quarter of incidents took place in a common area (such as
a shower or dayroom), 19% in a program service area
(such as commissary, kitchen, storage area, laundry, cafeteria, workshop, hallway, classroom, or clinic), and 17%
outside of the facility. A quarter occurred in the victim’s
room, and 16% in a dormitory (table 7).
Youth-on-youth incidents were more likely to occur in the
victim’s room (37%) or in a common area (32%), compared
to staff-on-youth incidents (7% and 13%, respectively).
Nearly a third of staff-on-youth incidents occurred outside
the facility (31%), and a quarter occurred in a dormitory
(24%).
While incidents of sexual violence occurred at all times of
the day, the majority occurred between 6 p.m. and midnight
(44%) or between noon and 6 p.m. (35%). The most
common times for youth-on-youth incidents to occur were

between noon and 6 p.m. (37%) and 6 p.m. and midnight
(36%), while staff-on-youth incidents were most likely to
occur between 6 p.m. and midnight (59%).
In more than two-thirds of the incidents, the victim or
another youth reported the incident. Facility staff completed
the initial report in about one-third of substantiated
incidents.
Juvenile authorities reported that force, threat of force, or
pressure was involved in 36% of youth-on-youth incidents
(table 8). About the same percentage of incidents (35%)
was reported as voluntary. The remainder involved
unwanted touching for sexual gratification (32%).
Force or threat of force was more common among male
victims (32%) of youth-on-youth sexual violence than
among female victims (6%). Victims under age 16 were
more likely to have been persuaded or talked into participating in the sexual act (35%) than victims age 16 or older
(13%). A third of older victims had been injured, physically
forced, held down, or threatened (34%).

Sexual Violence Reported by Juvenile Correctional Authorities, 2005-06

Approximately 10% of the substantiated incidents of staffon-youth sexual violence involved force or pressure (not
shown). An additional 21% involved sexual harassment
(14%), inappropriate touching (5%), or indecent exposure
(2%).
Two-thirds of the incidents (66%) were characterized as “a
romantic relationship” or as “appeared to be willing.” (See
the BJS web site at http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/
ssv5.pdf for changes in the reporting options in the 2005
and 2006 surveys.) Regardless of how correctional authorities reported these incidents, they are considered an abuse
of power, involve an unknown level of coercion, and as
such, classified as sexual violence.
Most perpetrators of youth-on-youth sexual violence
were male, age 16 or older; most perpetrators of staff
misconduct were male, age 25 to 29
Most incidents of youth-on-youth sexual victimization (88%)
involved one victim and one perpetrator (not shown). Overall, 5% of youth-on-youth incidents involved a single victim
and multiple perpetrators; 4% involved multiple victims and
a single perpetrator; and 3% involved multiple victims and
multiple perpetrators.
• Perpetrators of youth-on-youth sexual violence were
typically male (78%) and age 16 or older (57%). An esti-

• About half of staff perpetrators were male (54%) and a
majority were under the age of 30 (63%). Among staff
perpetrators, 37% were white; 44%, black; and 19%,
Hispanic (table 10).
• Supervision staff was involved in 69% of female staff-onyouth sexual misconduct and harassment and in 39% of
male staff-on-youth sexual misconduct and harassment.
Among incidents involving male staff, more than half
were educational or other program staff.
• Contract employees were involved in 5% of substantiated staff-on-youth incidents.

6 Sexual Violence Reported by Juvenile Correctional Authorities, 2005-06

• Among male staff perpetrators, more than a quarter
(27%) had worked at the facility for less than 6 months.
Among female staff perpetrators, nearly half (48%) had
worked at the facility for less than 6 months.
Victims received physical injuries in 12% of
substantiated incidents of youth-on-youth sexual
violence; about half received some form of medical
follow-up
Across all substantiated incidents of youth-on-youth sexual
violence, about 1 in 8 victims (12%) sustained an injury
(table 11). Anal or vaginal tearing was reported in 8% of the
incidents.
Victims received medical attention and counseling or mental health treatment in nearly two-thirds of the incidents.
Among the most serious incidents (i.e., nonconsensual
sexual acts), 52% of the victims were given a medical
examination; 10% were administered a rape kit; and 65%
were provided counseling or mental health treatment.

Nearly half of the victims of staff-on-youth sexual misconduct or harassment received counseling or mental health
treatment (table 12). About two-thirds of victims of staff sexual misconduct or harassment in state juvenile correctional
systems did not receive medical follow-up, compared to
44% of victims in local or private facilities. One in five victims in local or private facilities was tested for HIV/AIDS
(20%) or for another sexually transmitted disease (STD)
(20%).
The most common responses following a reported incident
of youth-on-youth sexual violence was to move the victim
within the facility (24%), place the victim in segregation or
protective custody (10%), or transfer the youth to another
facility (10%). In about half of the incidents (52%), there
was no change in the housing assignment or custody level
of the victimized youth.

• Nearly 40% of perpetrators of staff misconduct or
harassment were arrested or referred for prosecution
(table 13).

Most youth-on-youth perpetrators received legal sanctions or solitary confinement; most staff were arrested,
referred for prosecution, or discharged
• A legal sanction, including referral to law enforcement,
arrest, referral for prosecution, or a new sentence, was
imposed on perpetrators in 63% of all substantiated incidents involving youth-on-youth nonconsensual sexual
acts and in 27% of the incidents involving abusive sexual
contact.
• In the most serious incidents, youth perpetrators were
moved to solitary confinement or disciplinary segregation (28%) or transferred to another unit/facility (51%).

• Among the multiple types of sanctions imposed on staff,
discharge was the most common – 67% of the staff were
discharged.
• Almost all staff perpetrators lost their job in local or private facilities (99%), compared to 75% of staff perpetrators in state systems.

• Even in the least serious incidents (those involving voluntary sexual activity between youth), many perpetrators
received legal sanctions (31%), were transferred to
another unit/facility (37%), or given solitary/disciplinary
confinement (25%).

8 Sexual Violence Reported by Juvenile Correctional Authorities, 2005-06

In the 2006 survey, non-state facilities were grouped into
3 categories: locally operated facilities (256), privately
operated facilities (1,921), and detention facilities (569):

Methodology
Sampling designs
The 2005 and 2006 SSV included all state-operated juvenile residential placement facilities used to house juveniles
and youthful offenders, regardless of age or reason for
placement. As defined in the 2004 Juvenile Residential
Facility Census (JRFC), residential placement facilities
included detention centers, training schools, long-term
secure facilities; reception or diagnostic centers; group
homes or halfway houses; boot camps; ranches; forestry
camps, wilderness or marine programs, or farms; runaway
or homeless shelters; and residential treatment centers for
juveniles. All states and the District of Columbia operated a
total of 501 juvenile facilities in 2004.

1. 37 locally operated facilities were sampled with certainty because they were the largest in their respective
states, and 1 additional facility was included in the sample based on its size alone.

Separate samples of locally and privately operated facilities
were drawn in accordance with the requirement that BJS
draw a random sample, or other scientifically appropriate
sample, of not less than 10 percent of all facilities covered
under the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (P.L. 10879).

4. 112 other privately operated facilities were sampled
with probabilities proportionate to size from 2 strata
defined by commitment status only.

In the 2005 survey, facilities were first grouped into locally
operated facilities (700) and privately operated facilities
(2,046) and sampled independently:
1. 37 locally operated facilities were selected because
they were the largest in their respective states.
2. 37 other locally operated facilities were selected with
probabilities proportionate to size, where the measure
of size was the total number of persons assigned to
beds in the facility. One was selected with certainty due
to its size; 36 were sampled from 8 strata based on
region and commitment status. Region had 4 levels
(midwest, northeast, south, and west), while commitment status had 2 levels. Detention centers, reception/
diagnostic centers, and shelters were considered noncommitment facilities, and schools, ranches, camps,
farms, halfway houses, and group homes were considered commitment facilities.
3. 51 privately operated juvenile facilities were sampled
with certainty because they were the largest in their
respective states. An additional 4 privately operated
facilities were selected with certainty due to their size.
4. 150 of the remaining 1,991 private facilities were sampled from 8 strata defined by region and commitment
status. Probabilities of selection were proportionate to
size, with equal sample proportions across strata.
While 279 non-state facilities were sampled in the 2005
survey, an additional 51 units were included in the sample
in 2006, bringing the total number of non-state facilities in
the 2006 sample to 330. The sample was expanded to
ensure representation of non-state detention facilities.

2. 20 locally operated facilities that were not the largest in
their respective states were sampled with probabilities
proportionate to size from 2 strata based on commitment status only.
3. 51 privately operated facilities were sampled with certainty as the largest in their respective states, and 1
additional facility was included in the sample based on
its size alone.

5. 108 non-state detention facilities were sampled. Fourteen facilities were included in the sample based on
their sizes alone, while the remaining 94 facilities were
stratified by region and selected with probability proportionate to size.
Data for each state system and sampled facility are displayed in the Appendix tables. In each table, a measure of
population size (based on the number of youth held at
yearend) has been provided as a basis of comparison;
however, the survey results should not be used to rank systems or facilities. Variations in the number of allegations
and substantiated incidents may reflect differences in definitions and reporting criteria, as well as variations in procedures for recording allegations and in the thoroughness of
subsequent investigations.
Survey participation
All state systems and the District of Columbia participated
in the surveys in both years. In the 2005 survey, all 74
locally operated facilities and 188 (of 205) privately operated facilities responded to the survey. Among those not
responding, 11 had closed or were not eligible. Six facilities
refused or did not respond to repeated requests, including:
• Wilderness Program for Boys, Enterprise, Alabama
• Tuolumne House, Turlock, California
• Brown House, Turlock, California
• Excelsior Youth Center, Aurora, Colorado
• Colorado Boys Ranch, La Junta, Colorado
• Klingberg Family Centers, Inc., New Britain,
Connecticut.

In the 2006 survey, 55 (of 58) locally operated facilities, 149
(of 164) privately operated facilities, and 105 (of 108) nonstate detention facilities responded. Among nonrespondents, 15 had closed or were not eligible. Seven facilities
refused or did not respond to repeated requests, including:

• Completed, attempted, threatened, or requested sexual
acts; or
• Occurrences of indecent exposure, invasion of privacy,
or staff voyeurism for sexual gratification.

• Oak Hill Youth Center, District of Columbia

Staff sexual harassment involves repeated verbal statements or comments of a sexual nature to a youth by an
employee, volunteer, official visitor, or agency representative. Such statements include demeaning references to
gender or derogatory comments about body or clothing; or
profane or obscene language or gestures.

• Sargent House, Boston, Massachusetts

National estimates and accuracy

• Hennipen County Home School, Minnetonka, Minnesota

Survey responses were weighted to produce national estimates by type of facility. Data from the state juvenile systems received a weight of 1.00, because these systems
were all selected (i.e., sampled with certainty). Data from
local and private facilities were assigned a weight equal to
the inverse of their probabilities of selection.

• Camp John Munz, Lake Hughes, California
• Camp Karl Holton, San Fernando, California
• Main Campus, Chatsworth, California

• Buchanan County Academy, St. Joseph, Missouri
Definitions of sexual violence
In 2004, BJS developed uniform definitions of sexual violence. All incidents of youth-on-youth sexual violence
involve sexual contacts with any person without his or her
consent, or with a person who is unable to consent or
refuse. The most serious incidents, nonconsensual sexual
acts, include:
• Contact between the penis and the vagina or the penis
and the anus including penetration, however slight; or
• Contact between the mouth and the penis, vagina, or
anus; or
• Penetration of the anal or genital opening of another person by a hand, finger, or other object.
The less serious incidents, abusive sexual contacts,
include:
• Intentional touching, either directly or through the clothing, of the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or
buttocks of any person.
Incidents of staff-on-youth sexual violence are separated
into two categories.
Staff sexual misconduct includes any behavior or act of a
sexual nature, either consensual or nonconsensual,
directed toward a youth by an employee, volunteer, official
visitor, or agency representative. Such acts include:
• Intentional touching of the genitalia, anus, groin, breast,
inner thigh, or buttocks with the intent to abuse, arouse,
or gratify sexual desire; or

Survey estimates for local and private juvenile facilities are
subject to sampling error. The error, as measured by an
estimated sampling error, varies by the size of the estimate
and the size of the base population. Estimates of the standard errors for selected survey items are presented in
tables 14 and 15.
These standard errors may be used to construct confidence intervals around survey estimates (e.g., numbers,
rates, and percentages), as well as differences in these
estimates. The 95% confidence interval around the number
of allegations of sexual violence in local or private juvenile
facilities in 2006 is approximately 1,239 plus or minus 1.96
times 216. Statistically, this implies a 95% confidence that
the true number of allegations in 2006 was between 816
and 1,661.
Detail on substantiated incidents
The 2005 and 2006 surveys recorded 405 substantiated
incidents of youth sexual violence—that is, incidents that
were investigated and determined to have occurred. Taking
into account the sampling of local and private juvenile facilities, the estimated total number of substantiated incidents
for the U.S. was 732. Juvenile authorities provided detail on
an estimated 660 incidents (or 90% of all substantiated
incidents). Through the use of a separate incident form, the
survey collected details on circumstances surrounding
each incident, characteristics of victims and perpetrators,
type of force, threat of force, pressure used, sanctions
imposed, and victim assistance provided.

10 Sexual Violence Reported by Juvenile Correctional Authorities, 2005-06

Because the number of substantiated incidents were relatively infrequent (2.4 per 1,000 youth in 2006 and 5.7 per
1,000 youth in 2005), and because the standard errors for
estimates in non-state facilities were relatively large, the
survey results for each year were combined to provide
more accurate estimates.
Standard errors may be used to construct confidence intervals around these combined survey estimates. For each
combined estimate, the standard error may be calculated
by taking the square root of the sum of each standard error
squared in each survey year. The standard error for the
number of substantiated incidents of youth-on-youth sexual
violence in 2005 was 45.2 in 2005 and 27.7 in 2006. The
pooled standard error was 53.0 (or the square root of 45.22
plus 27.72). Statistically, this implies a 95% confidence that
the true number of substantiated youth-on-youth incidents
in 2005 and 2006 was 439 plus or minus 1.96 times 53.0
(between 335 and 543).
