Learned so much at the conference with @NatJuvDefend this past weekend. With everything going on in the world, it’s good to remember we are all fighting together.

Since 2005, the number of youth charged as adults in the USA has been reduced 70%. While this is progress - it’s not enough, with too many kids *still* incarcerated. Learn more and take action this #YouthJusticeActionMonth: https://t.co/LNHfsi9RYo

The adult prison system has negative developmental impacts on juveniles. PTSD, shame, and behavioral issues that lead to recidivism are just a few. Check out the new report by @justiceforyouth for more information about this problem. https://t.co/gmRzOiIGS0

On this #MondayMorning we are reminded of the words of former Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black: "There can be no equal justice where the kind of trial a man gets depends on the amount of money he has." Let's support #publicdefense all throughout the week!

Children in out-of-home care due to CHINS proceedings are kept there for a 9% (50 days) shorter time period in counties that participate in the Public Defender Commission reimbursement program as compared to non-commission counties. Learn more at: https://t.co/hZEZlC4YfS

One public defender observed how even the seemingly minor crime of a misdemeanor can have a significant negative effect on a person's life. The Public Defender Commission currently cannot fund representation in these important cases, and is advocating for the ability to do so.

16 year-old Kalief Browder was held primarily in solitary confinement for 3 years. 1 year later, he committed suicide. Solitary confinement has damaging effects on all people, esp. young people in the #juvenilejustice system. https://t.co/lIynCNR6JU #31Facts4YJAM #YJAM

[Vera Institute of Justice @verainstitute]

Following sweeping legislation, New York has officially moved all 16 year old minors awaiting trial out of Rikers Island and are no longer to be tried as adults in criminal court or housed with adults—profoundly impacting the state's justice system. https://t.co/xRIMJZtYoI
