During our final photovoice session, youth provided their recommendations on how to reduce youth contact with the juvenile justice system, especially for BIPOC. We collected and summarized their recommendations in the following tables at the individual/interpersonal level, school level, and community level. We also provide actions that any community member can take below the table.
Sign up to volunteer for local mentoring programs for BIPOC youth
Organize a youth event in your community, neighborhood or church (ex. Art, sport)
Tutor in alternative school programs
Become a local CASA advocate
