Making the justice system fair for children and families

For 20 years, the Center has fought for and stood with children in conflict with the law. With a dual focus on zealous individual advocacy and systemic policy reform, the Center seeks to protect the rights of children and to change the ways in which the systems controlling their lives too often ultimately fail them. It is also committed to teaching and mentoring the next generation of lawyers and policy advocates. Learn more ›
