Juvenile Justice resources available
There are a number of resources available to school personnel, students and families through the Juvenile Justice Reinvestment Initiative. Please be aware of the following:
- In January 2017, a new citations process was put into place, and the JJRI Oversight Council has created a document to assist in the process for new diversion options.
- Another emphasis is providing services in communities before citation, especially in the areas of behavior and mental health. The Department of Social Services website has contact information for services:
- Schools can also contact local social services offices for faculty and staff training. A few recommendations are “Youth Mental Health First Aid,” “Ending the Silence,” and “Trauma Informed Health.”
- The 2017 Juvenile Justice Reinvestment Initiative resources website provides detailed reports about the initiative since its implementation 18 months ago.
