Join in on April 23rd from 1:00pm-2:30pm EST for the next webinar in the series to share key findings from the #YouthProtectiveFactorsStudy, hosted by The Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center, UMass Chan Medical School, and UC Berkeley’s Risk-Resilience Lab. The webinar—The Influence of Protective Factors and Strength-Based Services on Youth Reoffending—will share key takeaways from the 2nd brief in the study, which will be released in mid-April. This includes results from a first-of-its-kind survey of protective factors administered to almost 2,000 youth across 3 states as part of juvenile justice system intake processes. The webinar will also highlight the specific protective factors that mitigate youth reoffending and the impact of receiving strength-based services on youth recidivism and violence. Principal researchers Dr. Gina Vincent, Dr. Jennifer Skeem, and Josh Weber, who oversees the CSG Justice Center’s juvenile justice work, will share implications for juvenile justice case planning, services, and how jurisdictions can best use limited resources to improve public safety and youth outcomes.
