Review the Socio-Ecological Model for mental health. Discuss how you would apply each level of influence in your understanding of how it explains the way a child in the Juvenile Justice system could develop his/her behaviors that led to incarceration. Be sure to describe each level and provide an example of characteristics at each level that can negatively influence child’s outcomes. For example, at the community level you could talk about the impact that exposure to gang violence could have on a child’s well-being. Be sure to address the following levels:
1. The Individual Level
2. Relationships (Family Level and Peer Level)
3. The Community Level
4. The Policy/Societal Level
