Dismantling the School to Prison Pipeline

Committee Democrats are committed to securing policy solutions that dismantle the Cradle-to-Prison Pipeline.

We have a responsibility to improve our education and juvenile justice systems by passing legislation that support states and their prevention and intervention efforts and reduce the overuse of discipline practices.

Key Legislation:

Juvenile Justice Reform Act of 2017

Youth Prison Reduction through Opportunities, Mentoring, Intervention, Support, and Education Act (Youth PROMISE Act)
