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.

Looking for Juvenile Justice Curriculum

Liz Gosse ·
Hi All, I'm new to this. I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I teach a life skills class in a small juvenile detention facility and would love to incorporate resilience and ACES into my lesson plans. Does anyone have suggestions of a curriculum I could use with my youth to teach these things? So far I've looked a little bit at Why Try and Seeking Safety but I am definitely open to other suggestions. Thanks!

vicarious trauma resources in youth detention facilities

Melanie G Snyder ·
Hi there - I've had an inquiry from one of our community youth justice partners about whether there are youth detention facilities out there that have found effective ways to have on-site resources for staff to help them with vicarious/secondary trauma that results from their jobs in this work. I welcome any suggestions or ideas. Thanks in advance!
