Transformation Lab
The Collaborative was created to establish a more effective and equitable justice system that is
responsive to the needs, rights, and perspectives of all young people. Specifically, we envision a future where interaction with the justice system no longer increases the likelihood of recidivism for youth. Instead, in our vision, the justice experience will foster large support networks and impart tools to youth so that they may effectively navigate any systemic barriers they
encounter.
