Padres & Jovenes Unidos Ending the School to Jail Track Youth Conference

 

What's the Problem?

Did you know...

  • Harsh discipline policies push students out of school & into the juvenile justice system, especially youth of color?
  • There were nearly 100,000 referrals to law enforcement for minor over the past decade in the state of Colorado?
  • Zero tolerance policies decrease the number of students who graduate?
  • Harsh discipline policies have a negative impact on your education?

 

What can we do?
