PACEs in Youth Justice

Discussion of Transition and Reentry issues of out of home (treatment, detention, sheltered, etc.) youth back to their families and communities. Frequently these youth have fallen behind in their schooling, have reduced motivation, and lack skills to navigate requirements to successfully re-enter school programs or even to move ahead with their dreams.

Shifting Gears on Juvenile Justice: FrameWorks Communications Toolkit

A collection of framing research, recommendations, and sample communications.

This toolkit is designed to help reformers and advocates in the juvenile justice field increase public understanding of:

  • * the science of adolescent development and the need to incorporate a developmental perspective into criminal justice policies designed for youth;
    * why the current approaches to juvenile crime aren’t working;
    * age-appropriate treatments and interventions that improve outcomes for those already in the system and preventive programs that divert more youth away from juvenile detention and towards programs that better serve their needs.
