About this event
Youth incarceration in the United States declined dramatically over the past quarter century, dropping 79% from 1997 to 2021 due to shifts in juvenile offending and evolving approaches to delinquency. Yet today, juvenile crime is once again in the national spotlight, with rising concerns about robberies, carjackings, and other violent offenses involving young people. The question now: how can the justice system respond in ways that promote both accountability and opportunity?
Join leaders from the Council on Criminal Justice’s Centering Justice project for a timely exploration of effective interventions, persistent challenges, and the path forward for juvenile justice.
Centering Justice
Centering Justice engages a diverse range of the nation’s top thinkers and doers in an ongoing, ideologically vibrant conversation about criminal justice policy. The initiative strives to bring light rather than heat to the most vexing criminal justice issues of our time. It is led by two senior CCJ staff members who are among the most widely recognized and respected voices on the right and left of the criminal justice conversation, Marc Levin and Khalil Cumberbatch.
