Center For Children & Youth Justice

Better systems. Better lives. Founded in 2006 by Washington State Supreme Court Justice Bobbe J. Bridge (ret.), the Center for Children & Youth Justice is the only nonprofit organization in Washington state dedicated solely to reforming our juvenile justice and child welfare systems to make them work more efficiently and effectively for children, youth, families and communities. The Center for Children & Youth Justice is shaping better lives for youth involved in Washington's foster care and juvenile justice systems. In partnership with parents, advocates and policymakers, the Center develops and advances innovative approaches and programs to systemic changes that will support kids, stabilize families and strengthen communities.
