Resource LinkJDAI Help Desk
SummaryThe JDAI Help Desk is a practice-based, informational resource for juvenile justice practitioners, policymakers, advocates, and others interested in improving the detention component of their delinquency system and their juvenile justice system overall. Full Text
Since 1992, the Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative, a project of the Annie E. Casey Foundation, has demonstrated that jurisdictions can safely reduce the use of secure detention while strengthening their juvenile justice systems and protecting public safety. JDAI helps communities develop strong outcome measures limit additional costs, and in some cases, reduce costs. With reform efforts in more than 75 jurisdictions in 19 states and the District of Columbia, JDAI is now operational in those places responsible for almost 75 percent of the country’s detained youth population! The past fifteen years of JDAI system reform efforts have produced key lessons and strategies. These strategies, innovations and model practices are now available to you at the JDAI Help Desk.
