Center for Juvenile Law & Policy

The Center for Juvenile Law and Policy (CJLP) was founded in 2004 to tackle the injustices of the Los Angeles County juvenile court system.  Advanced law students represent court-involved juveniles in criminal-court-proceedings, education hearings, probation hearings, and appeals cases.   

CJLP not only provides tens of thousands of pro-bono hours of cutting-edge legal advocacy to the Los Angeles community, it also gives future advocates practical, hands-on experience in the challenges and triumphs of juvenile justice.
