Center for Juvenile Law and Policy
The LLS CJLP was founded with the goal of fostering systemic reform of the Los Angeles Juvenile Justice system through ongoing research, discussion, and advocacy. Through policy research and advocacy, the Center provides a voice for children and families involved in the Juvenile Justice System, and a point of convergence for students, faculty, stakeholders, and community members dedicated to the creation of a more humane and responsive justice system for children. Because sound and credible policy advice are driven by the real world experience of individuals in the court system, a central component of the Center is the Juvenile Justice Clinic.
