The New York Center for Juvenile Justice’s Mission can be condensed to four words:
Judging Children as Children.
We secure justice for children by promoting a model of justice for minors that treats children as children, and responds to their misconduct with strategies designed to improve their chances of becoming constructive members of society.
Latest News
We are excited to announce an important and informative project—our first collaborative “Raise The Age” Community Forum. This event will provide youth and their families with a valuable opportunity to learn about New York’s low age of criminal responsibility, as well as to become familiar with legislative proposals to change the current law.
