The Power of Advocacy
Mar 1, 2011Our brochure details the positive outcomes that result from thoughtful and effective initiatives on behalf of youth involved or at risk of involvement in the justice system. By advocating for the rights of this vulnerable population, we can improve their quality of life and ensure that they reach their full potential. This is illustrated through a series of case studies in which advocacy is used to prevent delinquency, raise the age of prosecution as an adult in Connecticut, and end the school-to-prison pipeline.
