Check out our Lafayette Chapter at Youth Day at the Capitol #YDAC! Together with our partners @dbinola they uplifted youth voices, empowered youth to participate in their legislative process, and advocated for youth-centered solutions. #letkidsbekids #fflic #AdvocacyInAction
DYS should NOT house more children than they can safely rehabilitate. Other states like Texas have implemented intake freezes, why hasn't Ohio? Join us for our educational forum to learn more about what YOU can do to help change Ohio for the better! #juvenileJustice #YouthJustice

Happy Fact Friday!! Despite what you've heard in the news, juvenile crime is actually decreasing in Ohio and nationwide. Now is the perfect time for more rehabilitative and less punitive measures to set our youth on the right path for their future! #JuvenileJustice #YouthJustice

"As a returned community member & father to 2 beautiful children, I crave safety. I don’t want anyone exposed to violence. I also know imprisoning me & thousands of other young men isn’t the answer." @TeenVogue leading again. Lawmakers: Please listen. teenvogue.com/story/superpre…
Suspensions in schools disproportionately impact Black and brown students. The inequality of the system toward young people could negatively change the trajectory of their lives. It is time to hold the system accountable for this unfair treatment. #nomoreprisons, #investinkids
We believe that the best ideas bubble up from communities, so we work to engage deeply in and with the communities we fund. We proudly join Tennessee’s fight for transformative change in and around the state’s criminal justice system. Learn more here: publicwelfare.org/our-work/juris…
“It's not enough just to say what we don't want to see... we've got to start building what we want to see.” @ccjones235 has led PWF for the past 7 years, leading investment in community-led organizations to create a transformative and racially just future. #WomensHistoryMonth
🧵 (1/2) According to @NoKidsInPrison data, Black youth are nearly 3.5x as likely to end up inside the @fladjj than their White peers.
Why it matters: It costs taxpayers over $90K annually per child to imprison them versus less than $9K per pupil to educate them. This #SecondChanceMonth is both a moral and an economic imperative. nokidsinprison.org/explore/florid… [📊: @NoKidsInPrison] (2/2)
In this season of change, it’s time to do something different and take responsibility for our children and for creating an environment where they are protected from violence and crime. Stay tuned for details on how you can Stand in Hope to support youth and families this spring!
Thank you, @KYWNewsradio for covering this urgent issue. Overcrowding is completely unacceptable, but the solution is providing supports in communities, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 sending children to prison. 👏🏽👏🏽 audacy.com/kywnewsradio/n… #CareNotControl #FreeOurYouth #NoKidsinPrison @NoKidsInPrison

Black youth in Louisiana are pushed out of school at disturbing rates, far more than their white peers. If kids are criminalized for acting like kids, they become increasingly vulnerable to making contact with the youth justice system. #solutionsnotsuspensions
