In celebration of Youth Justice Action Month (YJAM), the National Youth Justice Network and the Coalition for Juvenile Justice have launched the weekly "YOUth Are Worth It! YJAM 2024 Video Series."
This video series focuses on the movement to re-envision youth justice. Highlighting this year's YJAM theme, “YOUth Are Worth It,” the videos encourage the reimagining of new systems of support, healing, and restorative justice for youth and families.
Each October we recognize YJAM to raise awareness and inspire action on behalf of young people impacted by the justice system. In recognition, Check out OJJDP's YJAM social media toolkit, which includes YJAM images, videos, and sample social media posts.
