Webinar To Examine Restorative Justice and Disproportionate Minority Contact<br> <br>
On March 14, 2012, at 2 p.m. E.T., the Office of Juvenile Justice and
Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) will present the Webinar, “The Road to
Juvenile Justice: The Intersection of Restorative Justice and
Disproportionate Minority Contact.”<br> <br> Juvenile justice
practitioners must strike a balance between ensuring public safety and
justice and accountability for youth affected by disproportionate
minority contact (DMC). Restorative justice practices implemented at the
"nine points of contact" within the juvenile justice system can be
effective tools to reduce DMC. This Webinar will examine strategies that
both rural and urban communities use to hold youth accountable and will
consider how they can support local DMC-reduction efforts.<br> <br> Registration is available online.<br> <br> Resources:<br> <br> For more information about the Webinar and to register, go to <a href="https://ojjdptta.webex.com/mw0306ld/mywebex/default.do?siteurl=ojjdptta" rel="nofollow nofollow" target="_blank"><span>https://ojjdptta.webex.com/</span><u></u><span></span><span>mw0306ld/mywebex/</span><u></u><span></span>default.do?siteurl=ojjdptta</a></span></div>
