OP-ED: Book Clubs Are Next Logical Step [JJIE.org]

New-Timberlake-color-336x504

Let’s start a book club!  OK, I’m not Oprah but let me explain what book clubs have to do with juvenile justice reform.

In just the last 15 years, the field of juvenile justice has exploded with knowledge gained through scientific research and the increased availability of data. Making that information more widely known can speed the pace of juvenile justice reform.

I would like to see community leaders gather monthly for conversation about research papers or chapters from books on the latest in developments in juvenile justice. Assigned reading, a regular meeting time and an exchange of views would better inform the community about prosecuting, defending and rehabilitating our youth.
