Books not bars – Close Youth Prisons, Keep Schools Open

Did you know California ranks near the bottom in education spending and performance, but we’re #1 in prison spending. DJJ (Division of Juvenile Justice)  drains much-needed resources from California’s schools and the vital community programs that would help our State thrive. It’s time to close the expensive, abusive DJJ and redirect those resources into our schools. Click here to take action now and send a message to governor Jerry Brown telling him to close DJJ youth prisons, not schools.
