  • Equal Justice for All Youth Initiative

    EQUAL JUSTICE FOR ALL YOUTH IS OUR INITIATIVE THAT BRINGS TOGETHER BOTH PUBLIC AGENCIES AND PRIVATE ORGANIZATIONS TO ENSURE THAT YOUTH OF COLOR WHO HAVE HISTORICALLY FACED DISPARITIES RECEIVE EQUITABLE TREATMENT WITHIN THE JUVENILE JUSTICE AND EDUCATIONAL SYSTEMS. AN EXAMPLE OF OUR CONVENING ABILITY IS OUR ROLE AS THE LEAD AGENCY IN THE MY BROTHERS KEEPER INITIATIVE, LAUNCHED NATIONALLY IN 2014 BY PRESIDENT OBAMA. WE HAVE ALSO SPEARHEADED THE CONVERSATION AND WORK-AROUND REDRESSING THE EFFECTS OF THE SCHOOL TO PRISON PIPELINE WITHIN OUR SCHOOL SYSTEM. THESE ACTIONS HAVE LED TO HISTORIC DECLINES IN THE NUMBERS OF YOUTH BEING NEEDLESSLY DETAINED BEFORE ADJUDICATION, AN INCREASED NUMBER OF YOUTHS RECEIVING SUPPORT TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AND A LARGER PRESENCE OF YOUTH VOICE IN MEETINGS AND DECISIONS WHERE THEY TRADITIONALLY HAVE BEEN MARGINALIZED.
