The Constitutional Rights Foundation is one of OJJDP's National Law-Related Education partners. Law-Related Education develops in young people a commitment to the rule of law by teaching strategies to avoid delinquent behavior and providing opportunities for participating as effective citizens. A consortium of five national law-related education (LRE) organizations, Youth For Justice (YFJ) provides sustainable, high quality LRE programs for at-risk youth and their communities. YFJ works in close collaboration with a national network of State LRE Centers and with schools, community groups, and legal and governmental organizations to promote model initiatives; disseminate field-tested materials; and deliver training and technical assistance to educators and parents in schools, communities, and juvenile justice settings.NCA/NCF
