This paper depicts some of the modern preventive programs that are being used in juvenile delinquency prevention. Prevention and control of juvenile delinquency greatly prevents crime in general. Researches show that there are numerous risk factors for delinquency: personal characteristics of a minor, quality of parenthood, family stability, continuity and quality of educational process, peers, other social groups, etc. Modern literature also asserts biogenetic predispositions of an individual as an important factor that can cause juvenile delinquency. Together with dynamic social risk factors, these predispositions create a mosaic of factors that can cause social deviation manifestation. The phenomenon of juvenile delinquency demands a detailed approach towards the identification of risk factors that lead to delinquent behavior, as well as creating multisystem programs and treatments in prevention.
