Youth & Family Engagement: A cornerstone of J4Fs mission and a year round practice rooted in cultural relevance, lived experience, and collective power. We not only support families through challenges and difficult times, but we also mobilize them, especially those directly impacted by youth justice, child welfare, and criminal legal systems to lead as voters, advocates, organizers, and decision-makers. In 2024, J4F facilitated voter registration drives, town halls, and legislative visits to Albany, civic learning events that demystify government processes and connect community members to urgent policy issues, youth and family-centered education sessions that are accessible, real-life oriented, and intergenerational.
