National Juvenile Justice Network Offers Fellowships for Youth Justice Leadership Institute

The National Juvenile Justice Network is now accepting applications for the second year of its Youth Justice Leadership Institute, a year-long program that includes leadership development, training in juvenile justice system policies and practices, theories of change and advocacy skills development. The Institute's mission is to create the foundation for a more effective juvenile justice reform movement through the development of a strong base of advocates and organizers who reflect the communities most affected by juvenile justice system practices and policies. Consequently, the Institute will focus on cultivating and supporting professionals of color. All fellows will gather twice during the year where they will be matched with a mentor.

Interested applicants may download an application packet online or contact the Institute's coordinator, Diana Onley-Campbell. Applications are due by April 23, 2012.
