Raise the Age and Other Juvenile Justice Reform

About this event

In Georgia, 17-year-olds who commit crimes are prosecuted, tried, and sentenced in the adult system, regardless of their crime or their personal background. Georgia is one of only 3 states that still treats 17-year-olds as adults instead of as children. We invite folks to the Capitol to learn and talk to their legislators about why 17-year-olds deserve fair, developmentally-appropriate treatment and how Georgia can save money and promote public safety by Raising the Age. This advocacy day will also cover issues that impact children in the criminal legal system, such as the school-to-prison pipeline, school safety and shackling.

You can find out more about Raising the Age in Georgia here.
