Hi John
News stories and political debates about crime and punishment too often harshly and unfairly characterize young people as “punks” or inaccurately blame them for fluctuations in crime. Youth justice in the U.S. is at a critical moment: incarceration is rising, racial disparities are worsening, and evidence-based reforms are underfunded.
The Sentencing Project is leading the fight for smarter, safer policies through research, advocacy, and public education. In 2025, we advocated for diversion reforms, advanced second-look legislation, and brought national attention to youth justice through data-driven reports and media engagement.
You can be part of this change. Stand with youth justice today— your gift supports advocacy, research, and education that shape policies and give young people a real chance to thrive.
With hope,
Kara Gotsch
