Juvenile Justice Coalition Meeting via Zoom -
Friday, October 29th at 4:00 pm
Juvenile Justice Coalition of the Quad Cities
Join our group dedicated to working on issues that affect and prevent incarceration of our youth. This group works closely with PACG's Civil Rights Forum and with the Adolescence, Race, and Trauma group.
With Davenport’s move to build an expanded Juvenile Detention Center (aka prison), our work is important. We are also strongly advocating for a Youth Assessment Program, which would reduce the need to incarcerate our youth.
