    Michelle Phillips posted an update in the group Group logo of Educating Students with Disabilities in Juvenile Justice SystemsEducating Students with Disabilities in Juvenile Justice Systems 5 years, 4 months ago

    I understand our courts can commit youth 13 to 21 year olds to the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice. But today I am learning we have county level detention center that are not covered by JJ and from what I’m understanding is that we could have kids in that system as well. Should that be happening? Does anyone know why this might happen? I haven’t reached out locally yet. I will tomorrow, I just wanted to check in with everyone and see if anyone has had this type of experience? Also I included an article I’ll add to our other sheet as well.
    Why are we criminalizing behavior of children with disabilities?

Accessibility

The people who work on the CPIR are not just advocates by profession—everyone on our team has a personal stake in the disability community as a parent, sibling, spouse, or otherwise.

The CPIR strives to be ever conscious of accessibility in technology. In compliance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, we have endeavored to make our website as accessible as possible, less any undue burden that would be imposed on us.

Compliance is an ongoing process on an active site such as the Hub.  If anyone has difficulty accessing our website information and resources, we encourage you to reach out to us directly so that we can improve our efforts to accommodate our audience.
