Support Emerging Leaders Attending CJJ’s 2016 Youth Summit!

CJJ is proud to be hosting our Annual Juvenile Justice Youth Summit, "Agents of Change: Rethinking, Reshaping, and Reforming the Juvenile Justice System," in Washington, DC this August!  The Summit brings together emerging leaders (under the age of 25) interested in juvenile justice reform. Last year, over 100 youth from 22 states attended our Youth Summit. Through the Summit, CJJ seeks to cultivate and empower a young body of juvenile justice advocates. We are asking YOU to join us in reforming our broken juvenile justice system by sending young people who have been involved with the system or are at risk for entering it.
