This webinar is part of a five-part series through the Center for Coordinated Assistance to States (CCAS), a partnership between CJJR, the American Institutes for Research (AIR), and the Council for Juvenile Correctional Administrators (CJCA) sponsored by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, that provides training and technical assistance to communities involved in juvenile justice related reforms.
