 Addressing the Unmet Educational Needs of Children and Youth in the Juvenile Justice and Child Welfare Systems
 
Cover Art: 
Children and youth involved in the juvenile justice and child welfare systems require the same quality educational services and support as other children. However, navigating between and among different agencies and disciplines often results in fragmentation and therefore poor educational outcomes for this population. The cover art represents the individual tracks these systems often take to work with children in their care. Working together, these systems can coordinate efforts, recognize deciencies and eliminate duplicate efforts to improve the educational outcomes of youth involved in child welfare, juvenile justice, or both.
