New OJJDP–Supported Tool Kit Supports Rural Youth and Families

JUVJUST - Common Problems, Common Solutions: Looking Across Sectors at Strategies for Supporting Rural Youth and Families Tool-Kit

The Center for Juvenile Justice Reform (CJJR) at Georgetown University's McCourt School of Public Policy recently released the "Common Problems, Common Solutions: Looking Across Sectors at Strategies for Supporting Rural Youth and Families Tool-Kit."

The tool kit provides an overview of barriers that rural communities face in preventing youth involvement in the juvenile justice system. It also provides examples of innovative practices serving justice-involved youth and their families in rural communities that can be adapted by other juvenile justice practitioners.

CJJR will host a virtual session to discuss the content of the tool kit on March 28, 1 to 2:30 p.m. ET. Register to attend.
