The Mental Health Juvenile Justice (MHJJ) program provides specialized support for youth under 18 who are involved with, or at risk of involvement in, the juvenile justice system. Our goal is to connect these young individuals with mental health and social services to foster better outcomes and reduce future involvement with the justice system.
