Reimagining Youth Justice: A Blueprint for Alameda County

Written By Y

Reimagining Youth Justice: A Blueprint for Alameda County examines the existing youth incarceration system in Alameda County. It lays out a roadmap of alternative responses centered in racial equity, healing and empowerment.

The report dives into examining how existing responses to violence and serious harm have failed us. It also shared what alternative responses should look like and examples of such alternatives in the County. The report also outlines examples of the existing youth-serving infrastructure present in the County to highlight the robust network of community support already present and eager to serve our young people.
