CJCJ’s vigorous policy advocacy and innovative programs transform juvenile justice systems to better serve young people and their families. This work strengthens community safety while reducing incarceration. Our team regularly investigates juvenile halls and youth prisons across the country. We report on conditions and concerns, while lifting up successful, community-led diversion programs. Here are CJCJ’s reports on these juvenile justice programs and policies.
