Informational Handouts

As one of the JJC initiatives, educational materials have been developed to be shared throughout the community to increase awareness and prevent juvenile delinquency. These handouts provide parenting tips, information about crisis resources, information about mental health, trauma warning signs and interventions, and information about strategies to monitor online activity.
