Individualized Higher Education Course of Action

For their 2015-2016 project, Juveniles for Justice youth advocates focused on access to higher education for justice-involved youth. The advocates developed a set of recommendations for juvenile justice facilities to help youth prepare for and attend college. Youth advocates also developed a workshop to help juvenile facility staff better support and encourage youth to plan for college. Their workshop explains their recommendations for facilities and includes role-playing exercises to demonstrate how the recommendations can be applied.  The workshop booklet also includes the "Individualized Higher Education Course of Action" which is a tool for youth and staff to use to create individualized education plans.
