California must act immediately to understand the scope of COVID-19 infection, inspect county facilities, and protect those inside. 

CJCJ stands with worldwide protests for racial justice, presses for successful closure of California’s DJJ institutions, and direct services remain open to support families amid COVID-19 challenges.

The proposal echoes CJCJ’s long-standing recommendations for the phased closure of all state youth correctional facilities.
