Youth Justice Navigator
An educational mobile app and website that bridges the information gap to empower youth and their caregivers as they face the juvenile legal system.
Why We Need Youth Justice Navigator
Juvenile courtrooms are intimidating and confusing for youth and their caregivers.
Youth’s voices are silenced in the juvenile legal process.
Court actors receive inadequate training on how to most effectively convey information to young people
The few educational tools about the juvenile justice system that do exist are difficult to access.
