Glossary of Virginia's Juvenile Justice System

This information is intended as a layperson's guide to the definitions and abbreviations most commonly used in Virginia's juvenile justice system. The list is not all-inclusive: many areas of the agency have their own specialized terminology, terms and abbreviations which are not generally applicable across a wide spectrum and so they are not included here.
