Sex Offender Registration of Children (SORNA) | Juvenile Law Center

Registries continue to punish youth years and even decades after they have served time. Data and research show that registries don’t improve public safety.

    My sister was nearly put on the registry when she was 15 for slapping a friends butt in school who had decided she didn’t want to be friends with her anymore but hadn’t exactly communicated it. She chose to communicate that by accusing her of SA.

    My sister avoided the registry by a mix of community service and counseling, but I always thought it was wild that she was at risk while under 18.
