Juvenile Justice Committee
We seek to improve outcomes for youth in the Ninth Circuit (Orange and Osceola Counties) by promoting the use of best practices in our juvenile criminal justice system. We do this through research to identify best practices, collaboration with community partners, education of the public and advocacy.
