LIVE at 10: @kcexec announces new, first-of-its-kind approach that will transform juvenile justice service delivery in King County. http://facebook.com/KingCountyWA pic.twitter.com/2JRbOT2KsM

In recent years, we have made great strides in reforming juvenile justice. Today, I am signing another Executive Order that goes further.
I am instructing departments to provide a plan that reorganizes juvenile detention services under the oversight & direction of @KCPubHealth.

By adopting a public health approach, we limit the traumatization of youth in detention & ensure families have access to support & services.

This approach fits hand-in-glove with
@BestStartsKC, which finds the root causes of poverty and provides the resources for a better future. - Show replies
