Adolescence is generally characterized by turbulent period in all areas and aspects of life and growth therefore closely associated with delinquency. This study aimed to determine the association of self-concept and delinquency among the street children in the Shelter of Putra Mandiri Semarang. This study used the correlation design with product moment analysis. This study has confirmed there was a significant correlation between self-concept and delinquency among street children. The more positive self concept associated with positive behavior patterns, and if the self-concept was negative it would be increased negative behavior patterns.
