Writing Assistance on JDAI Gender Responsive Program Toolbox

Funded by  Annie E. Casey Foundation, as part of their Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative.  (JDAI). The JDAI Study collaborative partners want to measure the number of LGBT youth involved in the juvenile justice system and to document the issues that have shaped their detention histories. Representatives from Legal Services for Children, the Youth Law Center, the National Center for Lesbian Rights, and the Equity Project worked with Ceres Policy Research to develop and approve the JDAI Survey instrument and data collection methodology.  Ceres Policy Research will collect and analyze the survey data so that the report can be shared with JDAI sites and other organizations.
