Positive Youth Outcomes (PYO) Committee Education Series: Policy Implications
CJCA has sponsored a year- long educational series intended to support the CJCA membership in delivering high quality educational services to the youth that we serve. Education is a critical deliverable for juvenile justice administrators and increasingly important to the youth’s positive outcomes and a successful reentry. It was the PYO’s Committees’ goal to share with our participants the message that the correctional education landscape is changing as we learn more about the importance of class room excellence, technology, effective re-entry, post -secondary strategies, special education and other key elements of a comprehensive educational system.
