Juvenile Justice Information Exchange (JJIE)


Juvenile Justice Information Exchange (JJIE)

Information is power.  If you want to know more about juvenile justice in the United States visit jjie.org and follow @JJIEnews on twitter/com/JJIEnews and facebook.com/jjiega.  They are also on LinkedIn.

Here are a few notes from their webpage:

"Doing what is best for children means staying well informed on governmental policies and legislation, court rulings, educational trends, treatment, research, prevention programs and other factors that impact the quality of service delivered to the kids that need them most."

"Those that care about children, education, family and the law comes to the JJIE because mainstream media no longer covers these issues with enough insight to do these serious topics moral justice. Crippled by budget constraints, mainstream media rarely examines beyond the surface except when horrific incidents occur. This approach can result in bad public policy and regressive legislation. We, as a society, owe it to our nation’s youth to do better."

"The Juvenile Justice Information Exchange takes a four-pronged approach:

1)   Great, in-depth reporting by professional journalists edited by the experienced John Fleming, Leslie Lapides and Rachel Wallack.

2)   Commentary from experts, academic researchers, practitioners and dedicated members of the public in our ‘Ideas and Opinions’ section.

3)   Interactive engagement with our audience through traditional, social and emerging medias and technologies.

4)   Editorial, action-oriented positions by publisher Leonard Witt."
