We are Guided by Our Mission and Core Values

Our Mission

  • Hold juvenile offenders accountable for their behavior.
  • Promote the safety and restoration of victims and communities.
  • Assist offenders and their families in developing skills to prevent crime.

A Few of Our Core Values

  • Accountability – both DJJ staff and the youth we serve must strive to hold ourselves and each other to high standards of ethics and behavior because we value accountability to our families and communities
  • Integrity – similar to accountability, we value doing what is right even when it is difficult
  • Enhancing Strengths – we work to enhance both staff and youth strengths because we understand that we are at our best when we use our individual strengths for the good of our families, communities, and ourselves
  • Respect – treating others well because we understand the inherent value of each person

To Fulfill our Mission, We Leverage Restorative Justice

A balanced and restorative justice approach to services and programming ensures that juvenile offenders take personal responsibility for repairing the harm caused to victims and communities by their delinquent behavior. The Division also works to prevent crime by supporting competency and skill development for juveniles so that they will have alternatives to law-breaking behavior.
