"Juvenile Justice" on KCTV showcases King County Superior Court's Partnership for Youth Justice diversion program in Washington State. The PYJ diversion program is a highly effective alternative to the traditional juvenile court system. First time and low level offenders meet with Community Accountability Boards (CABs) in the neighborhoods where they live. These CABs are made up of community volunteers who are trained to hear these cases and to apply the principles of Balanced and Restorative Justice (BARJ). Youth are held accountable at a community level and connected with resources and services designed to reduce recidivism. Youth who complete this program successfully never set foot in a courthouse and do not obtain a criminal record.
