The National Center for Juvenile Justice (the Center) is the independent research arm of the National Council of Family and Juvenile Court Judges. Previous grants enabled the Center to develop and launch the Juvenile Justice GPS (Geography, Policy/Practice and Statistics) website, which supports and stimulates the spread of reform by charting all 50 states’ performance and progress in key issue areas of importance to Models for Change. This final award enables the Center to continue to maintain and update the JJ-GPS website and adapt it to the needs of the field. By providing reformers, advocates, and policymakers with the means to understand the juvenile justice landscape as a whole and compare state juvenile justice systems, the project supports and facilitates the spread of reform.
