This report is the result of collaboration between students in an introductory GIS course at Loyola University and Project NIA. Using data obtained through a request to the Chicago Police Department (CPD), the students used GIS to map and analyze school day crimes and arrests, estimate youth by race within CPD districts, illustrate patterns of juvenile arrests by CPD district, and provide preliminary critical analysis of youth arrest patterns in Chicago to offer suggestions for future research.
