As part of our mission to support justice-involved youth, we provide a variety of programs and services designed to support and invest in people and communities impacted by youth crime and to enhance the long-term outcomes for adjudicated youth. Prevention & Intervention Research has shown that the best time to interrupt the prison pipeline is before a person has become involved with crime. Victim Services Crime damages individuals and relationships, so DJJ is committed to Restorative Justice Principles for those impacted by juvenile crime. Youth Work Programs Youth work programs provide a realistic work environment for DJJ youth and help prepare them for a life after detention
