Partners for Change

Demonstration Sites

While Models for Change work in Pennsylvania is carried out statewide, pilot projects in eight counties are demonstrating best practices in aftercare, mental health-juvenile justice coordination, and addressing disproportionate minority contact:

• Allegheny County (aftercare reform, disproportionate minority contact, mental health-juvenile justice coordination)
• Berks County (disproportionate minority contact)
• Cambria County (aftercare reform)
• Chester County (mental health-juvenile justice coordination)
• Erie County (mental health-juvenile justice coordination)
• Philadelphia County (aftercare reform, disproportionate minority contact)
• Lycoming County (aftercare reform)
• York County (aftercare reform)

Much of the Illinois Models for Change work is also being conducted at the state level, but there are five demonstration sites involved in expanding community-based alternatives to formal processing and confinement:

• Cook County
• DuPage County
• Ogle County
• Peoria County
• 2nd Judicial District

In Louisiana, local Models for Change work is taking place in five locations encompassing seven parishes:

• Caddo
• Calcasieu
• Jefferson
• Rapides
• 16th Judicial District (St. Martin, Iberia, St. Mary)
