Building Momentum for Juvenile Justice Reform
Published Nov 30, 2005, Justice Policy Institute
Tells the story of how the four Models for Change states—Pennsylvania, Illinois, Louisiana, and Washington—are already moving to reform and reshape their own state juvenile justice systems. Also examines the ways that Models for Change is seeking to build on their efforts, in the hope that the initiative will help these states develop new model policies, practices and procedures that will strengthen their reform work, and possibly represent changes that could be replicated in other states.
