JUVENILE REHABILITATION
DCYF's Juvenile Rehabilitation (JR) serves Washington state's highest-risk youth. Youth may be committed to JR custody by any county juvenile court. The juvenile courts follow prescribed sentencing guidelines to determine which youth will be committed to JR. These youth typically have committed many lower-level offenses or have committed a serious crime.
A majority of juvenile offenders are retained in their home counties and receive services administered by the juvenile court; e.g., detention and/or probation. Youth committed to JR are typically deep end youth that have committed serious crimes or have an accrued an extensive criminal history. When considering the purposes of the 1977 Act, it is important to keep in mind that it speaks to the entire juvenile justice continuum, with JR at the end of that continuum.
LANGUAGE FOR JUSTICE
A training series for participants to gain understanding, knowledge, and strategies to call in challenging conversations around race, gender & culture. How do we develop a language for justice? We share restorative justice tools for teaching, leading & organizing. Learn how we can become effective equity leaders to guide organizations, and educational institutions towards inclusion & justice for all.
