Youth Justice Action Month 2023

October 6, 2023
Youth in a circle

October is Youth Justice Action Month. This month serves as an opportunity to build awareness, inspire action, and amplify youth voices to understand the justice system's impact on them. This year, we encourage you to engage with content featuring youth voices within Juvenile Rehabilitation. You can learn directly from those impacted by these systems through listening, watching, or sharing youth perspectives. Through partnerships, collaboration, and community engagement, youth in our facilities can participate in creating music, screenwriting, and speaking on podcasts to share their stories, experiences, and insights.

Start Youth Justice Action Month by viewing and listening to the youth voices in Washington State Juvenile Rehabilitation Facilities below.
