In New York, status offenders are classified as juveniles who engage in behaviors that are considered violations of the law solely due to their age, such as truancy, running away from home, or curfew violations. Unlike criminal offenders, status offenses do not involve actions that are illegal for adults. These cases are typically handled within the family court system rather than the criminal justice system, focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment. The aim is to address the underlying issues that contribute to the youth's behavior.
