| Sumario: | This paper describes the profile of adolescent offenders in correctional semi-liberty facilities in the Federal District (DF) of Brazil. A quantitative approach was used to analyze secondary electronic data collected from the System Information for the Childhood and Adolescence (SIPIA) about the six semi-liberty facilities in the DF. The variables of age, gender, ethnicity, education, work status, family life, district of residence, family income, and drug use were analyzed in comparison to the results from other studies and the current literature. The findings suggest that most of the adolescents in semiliberty facilities in the DF are afro-descendants, are enrolled in educational institutions, have delayed school achievement, do not work, belong to femaleheaded single-parent families, and live in the districts of Planaltina, Ceilândia, and Sobradinho. This scenario coincides with the one described by a study carried out 10 years earlier, which indicates that the profile of this public has not changed much. |
