Can there be any strengths or contributions to society by juvenile delinquents (especially women) who have been abused or who abuse drugs/alcohol/sex?

First of all, yes, this is for an assignment, but I know where I’m going with it. I’m not asking anyone to write this for me in the least bit, but I just can’t wrap my head around this one annoying question in the assignment.

“What are some strengths and contributions of this group?”

I can’t think of any strengths or contributions that female juvenile delinquents would have, and I don’t think there are any, honestly. I’ve been searching in books, but do you think that I should just skip this part of the essay and write about something else?
