[1] Confidentiality Statutes of Child Protection Proceedings | |
|
In the 2004 General Assembly session, a bill was introduced to open to the public all juvenile proceedings, including cases involving child abuse and neglect. While the bill was not approved, it will be re-introduced in the 2005 Session. To provide context for the discussion, two students at Yale Law School (Michelle Garcia & Charisa Smith), who participate in Yale Legislative Services under the supervision of Voices' Shelley Geballe and Ellen Scalettar, prepared background materials on other states' positions on this issue, including interviews with key stakeholders in states that have opened proceedings in whole, or in part.

[4] Beyond the Tunnel Problem: Addressing Cross-Cutting Issues that Impact Vulnerable Youth | |
|
Call them silos, tunnels, or fragmentation, we know that when a young person has trouble, the kind of services he or she receives has little to do with the underlying needs of that young person and much to do with how they first enter the �system� � school, juvenile justice or child welfare. This means responses are often inappropriate or arbitrary.
This briefing paper, the first in a series sponsored by the Youth Transition Funders Group in partnership with The Annie E. Casey Foundation, identifies some of the challenges and what can be done about them.
