Our first focus for Youth Justice Action Month is on Education & Empowerment.

Every young person deserves opportunities to learn, grow, discover their strengths, and envision a future beyond justice system involvement.

When we invest in education, mentorship, workforce development, and opportunities for young people to lead, we aren't just supporting individual youth—we're strengthening entire communities.

Several state legislatures this year pushed bills to send youth to the adult criminal legal system - some to limit pathways that send youth to adult court and others to charge more youth as if they are adults.

As a follow up to our recent report “Youth Courts vs. Adult Courts: Why the Juvenile Justice System Works Better,” join us for a discussion on June 25 at 2PM (ET) on why the juvenile justice system is better for youth than adult courts.
