Center for Children and Youth Justice (CCYJ)

Justice for all kids means more children and youth will be diverted from entering Washington’s juvenile justice and child welfare systems. Those children and youth who are involved in these systems will maximize their potential to become more successful and productive members of their communities. They will have the support of integrated systems staffed by highly-skilled practitioners, utilizing evidence-based practices, in an environment of fair and unbiased decision making. We want systems working together efficiently, fairly, and effectively, in EVERY corner of Washington, for ALL kids.
