Strategies for Youth is pleased to announce the launch of our updated and improved website.

It’s SFY’s birthday! We’re 14 years strong and growing. Join me in celebrating SFY’s remarkable team of thinkers, trainers, writers, advocates and organizers.

We work in many different parts of the country, with a wide array of people — some hostile, some open to our ideas — in many time zones. What unites us: caring for youth and making sure they experience the best possible outcome from interactions with law enforcement.

This month, SFY welcomes Kim B. Simon as our new Director of Law Enforcement Training.
Kim brings an extraordinarily rich and diverse background and set of skills to her new position at SFY.

From guidance on interactions with law enforcement officers to helping young people understand and process trauma to developing life skills before leaving foster care, Juvenile Justice Jeopardy—in all of its iterations is making a real impact in the lives of young people across the country.

With the return of students, the debate over whether law enforcement officers should be placed in the nation’s public schools continues to rage. SFY offers parents and school decision makers practical resources to help them keep the schools safe and productive for all students.

Strategies for Youth is sending you a Big Thank You for supporting our Keep Kids Safe This Summer campaign in June. Your generosity has enabled us to customize different versions of Juvenile Justice Jeopardy games for youth living in different regions of the country.
