July 27, 2010 House Passes National Criminal Justice Commission Act
Washington, DC - 1st Congressional Hearing Held on Girls
Justice for Girls–Blueprint for Action– Approximately 125 stakeholders throughout Florida including representation from direct service providers, state attorneys, public defenders, judicial, legal, education, mental health, prevention, detention, probation, residential, aftercare, community release, health, business, women’s organizations, parents, youth, and concerned citizens came together to identify the challenges and opportunities for addressing the needs of girls in Florida. This diverse group of stakeholders identified a list of underlying fundamental principles for ensuring a fair, balanced and equitable gender responsive approach to girls in Florida. These principles were endorsed by the nearly 125 stakeholders who participated in the subsequent 2007 Justice for Girls Summit facilitated by Children’s Campaign, Inc. to review, amend and reach agreement on the blueprint recommendations set forth in this report.
