“Sara Smile” is more than another hit record for Jimmy Wayne. Much more.

“For 13 years, I have been singing that song,” he explains. “I sang it on the prison yard when I worked at the prison. Even though I didn’t write it, I sang it at writers’ nights in Nashville. It is the song that taught me how to play the guitar. In 2002, I sang ‘Sara Smile’ for Scott Borchetta, and he gave me a record deal. This song has had a major impact on my life.”

Jimmy Wayne’s remake of the Hall & Oates pop classic is now the centerpiece of an album that showcases his formidable talents as both a vocalist and a songwriter. His soulful singing permeates every note of such soaring, powerful ballads as “All the Time in the World,” “Belongs to You” and “Counting the Days.” He rocks splendidly on “There’s a Memory” and “Things I Believe.”

As a songwriter, Jimmy Wayne is uplifting and inspirational. In 2008, Jimmy Wayne’s career was stone cold. “Do You Believe Me Now” turned him into one of the greatest comeback stories in modern country-music history.

“It’s been amazing,” he says gratefully. “It just goes to show you what perseverance can do. That, plus having a great team.”

Adversity is nothing new to this gifted artist. As his fans know, Jimmy Wayne survived a turbulent, abusive childhood. His father abandoned the family. His mother went to prison, and he was shuttled to a series of foster homes. His stepfather tried to murder him. He was a homeless teen, living by his wits on the street.

“I became very independent. I had to depend on myself. Folks ask me why I don’t drink. I t ’s because I needed and wanted to be very conscious of what I was doing at all times. That’s what helped me to survive.”

A North Carolina couple named Russell and Beatrice Costner took him in and encouraged his evolving love of music. At the time, he was singing and writing in a variety of styles, rock, country and even rap and opera.

Today, Jimmy uses his story and his music to inspire people who work with at-risk and troubled youth. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear and meet an incredible individual.

This session will focus on issues around LGBT youth in the juvenile justice and child welfare systems. Participants will learn about the factors that elevate the risk of LGBTQ youth entering the juvenile justice system including biased policies and a lack of cultural competency that unfairly criminalizes LGBTQ youth. The presenter will engage participants in a discussion about how three key ingredients -- multi-agency and community collaboration, inclusive nondiscrimination policies, and family strengthening strategies – are helping agencies address the unique needs of LGBTQ youth and reducing their involvement in the juvenile justice system.

This panel will present information on the school to prison pipeline and examine the following issues that contribute to this phenomenon: (1) Systemic failure to apply our knowledge of child development when dealing with children’s problems, (2) The development of the “school prison” through the use of police to maintain order and solve problems (3)The increasing reliance on law and legal remedies to deal with children’s problems and (4) The operation of the juvenile justice process (why it should be avoided if at all possible). The panel presentations will present a case for smarter responses to children’s problems and provide arguments for changing child harming systems into child helping systems.

Strength-based practice is an emerging approach to helping at-risk youth and their families that is exceptionally positive and inspiring. Its focus is on strength-building rather than flaw-fixing. It begins with the belief that every individual has or can develop strengths and utilize past successes to mitigate problem behavior and enhance functioning. This comprehensive workshop will highlight many of the key principles and techniques of this transforming modality. Areas covered include: What is strength-based practice & the power of a positive attitude & culture; strength-based communication principles and techniques - including reframing, using solution-focused questions and inspirational metaphors; self-esteem building & activities for at-risk youth; how to help cognitively inflexible young people; the importance of being family centered; why, how, and when to use incentive plans; respectful limit setting; and a host of creative cognitive behavioral strategies.

Meeting room: Willis (2ND fl)This workshop provides an overview of the crime of Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking which encompasses every demographic, but focuses on the extremely vulnerable juvenile. The commercial sex trade and human trafficking has become

the second most lucrative criminal enterprise in the world, second only to drug trafficking. This workshop will pay specific attention to youth, vulnerabilities, the online grooming process, and recognizing the signs of trafficking. Runaways, throwaways, and vulnerable children fall prey to traffickers, and systems working with youth need to “look beneath the surface” to recognize potential victims.

While bullying is not a new circumstance among children and youth, as a society we are becoming more aware of the prevalence and traumatic impact to victims. With regard to bullying, access to technology has not been a positive development. On the contrary, cyber-bullying has expanded the opportunity for bullying; creating an anonymous and seemingly inescapable venue to bully victims. This workshop will review research and data regarding the incidence and impact of bullying, with particular emphasis on cyber-bullying. Effective strategies and tools to reduce cyber-bullying will be presented.

Juvenile detention and correctional facilities are as vulnerable to emergencies as any other public or private facility. How administrators and employees respond during a crisis can mean the difference between life and death. Having emergency plans are of little value if they have not been developed in a partnership with law enforcement agencies, fire services, first responders, and other adult and juvenile correctional agencies. Regular training and actual drills ensure that employees know their responsibilities and are prepared to respond to a crisis.

Participants in this interactive workshop will identify various types of emergencies, identify the essential elements of emergency plans and identify agencies they should engage as they develop their emergency management plans.

A good knowledge of developmental psychology can greatly influence how professionals assess and respond to children, youth, and adults presenting with serious emotional and/or behavioral issues. This entertaining, (almost) jargon-free workshop examines some of the key developmental periods, and illustrates how failure to meet developmental tasks and milestones can be manifested later in life. Topics covered include: How to help neurologically inflexible young people, the implications of failed bonding, the origin and treatment of character disorders, why at-risk kids have trouble making and sustaining friends – and what to do about this, why “splitting” and staff dissention are often prevalent in child welfare settings– and how to counteract this; and a new and developmentally-friendly definition of success in the work with at-risk children, youth, and their families.

It will open with a brief overview of current relevant learning theories and will also introduce the participants to session planning, and provide resources for the instructors for developing on-line, blended learning, and student centered learning instruction. Participants will be introduced to various delivery methods so that they can choose the most appropriate methods for their needs. The session will also consider various resources available to instructors. Participants will explore their own learning philosophies so that their instructional development techniques can be best tailored to reflect their teaching styles. Best practices will be

This session will provide an overview of the unique program model created and developed by the nonprofit Free Minds Book Club & Writing Workshop (www.freemindsbookclub.org) as well as strategies for implementing the program in juvenile facilities. Free Minds holds a book club session for 16 and 17 year old boys who have been incarcerated as adults at the DC jail every week. The youth voluntarily choose to participate and read and discuss books relating to their own lives and write poetry. The community is engaged through monthly “Write Nights” where a diverse group of volunteers gather to read Free Minds members poems and provide positive feedback to the new writers. The comments are then brought to the youth at the jail. Through these activities Free Minds members improve their literacy, learn the skills of creative expression and self awareness and learn how to interact positively in a group setting along with building compassion and empathy.

Rarely have we seen such a myriad of generations side by side. To help address this challenge, “Boomer XYZ: Communication and Learning Techniques for Our Juvenile Justice Generations” was developed. This highly interactive session is focused on providing professionals, especially trainers and leaders, with generational skills. “Boomer XYZ” is designed to identify the key traits of each generation in our workplace, including communication and collaboration preferences. It addresses areas such as technology, learning preferences and styles, perceptions of other generations, and expectations. In addition, the course incorporates a cross-generational small group exercise to reinforce new skills. Regardless of your own generation, “Boomer XYZ” provides easy-to-apply skills in communicating, collaborating, and team-building. Whether you watched “The Patty Duke Show,” “M*A*S*H,” “Cosby,” or “The Big Bang Theory,” come learn about current and future generations in Juvenile Justice!

Many JJ agencies are dealing with the challenge of managing a juvenile population that is increasingly violent and emotionally or mentally impaired. Levels of youth violence in custodial settings are rising, often alongside increasing rates of injuries to staff. This session will highlight a recent study of youth violence in Texas’s state-run secure facilities. Using Texas-specific data as an example, the session will identify the kinds of data that agencies should be tracking to assess levels of violence within facilities and trends that should raise concern for administrators. The presenter will discuss a multi-tiered behavior management model, based on nationally-recognized best practices, that incorporate strategies to prevent youth violence and to respond effectively when misbehavior and violence occurs. Ineffective practices such as the use of isolation, restraints, and force will also be discussed.

Addressing Disproportionate Minority Contact in the Juvenile Justice System examines the issue of Mass Incarceration among minority juveniles in the State of Illinois & Nationally and initiatives to address the issue through Disproportionate Minority Contact Task Forces and Models for Changes Initiatives. Disproportionate Minority Contact was brought to national awareness as early as 1974 where all 50 states were mandated to address the issue. Disproportionate Minority Contact also reflects the numbers of youth that are touched by the system period. Many who use to be confined are now on Electronic Monitoring and diverted to Evening Reporting Centers nevertheless they are involved in the Juvenile Justice System. The language that is being promoted more recently is Racial & Ethnic Disparities in the Juvenile Justice System. The session will look at risk factors as well as protective factors that can impact this issue in a meaningful way. The open discussion will be sure to raise the consciousness of all who attend.

James Dold, campaign for the fair sentencing of Youth (Dc)

lashunda hill, campaign for the fair sentencing of Youth (Dc)


This session will provide a primer on life without

parole sentences for children. Recent Supreme Court decisions, research into brain science and adolescent development, shifting public opinion and new approaches in several states have led to a new day in the way that we hold children accountable when they commit serious crimes. In 2010, the Supreme Court ruled in Graham v. Florida that life without parole sentences for youth who do not commit homicides are unconstitutional, and just two years later, in Miller v. Alabama the Court barred mandatory life without parole sentences for youth. With over 2,500 sentenced to life in prison without parole in the United States and no one in the rest of the world, we must thoughtfully contemplate how to address how to hold children accountable for their crimes in age appropriate ways that acknowledge their capacity for change and focus on rehabilitation and re-integration into society. After providing an overview, presenters will seek the perspectives of audience members, who work with juvenile offenders on a daily basis, about ways to advance this movement.

carol cramer Brooks, Nc4Yc (Mi)

room: JoNes (3rD fl)

The leading juvenile justice reformers have tried to build some of their reform efforts on a “detention is bad” platform. However, even in all of the reform strategies, there has always been the acknowledgement of the need for detention in the juvenile justice continuum of services. A much more effective platform, and one that the detention community could embrace is that “BAD DETENTION IS BAD”. The detention community has an obligation to respond aggressively to bad detention, but some detention is HELPFUL and successfully and effectively fulfilling its role in the JJ continuum, and our obligation is equally as strong to effectively spread the word about what is good about the work that we are doing with youth.

Presenters and workshop participants will engage in a facilitated discussion format about “helpful” and “bad” detention. The desired outcome for this workshop is for participants to develop a series of talking points promoting the positive outcomes of helpful detention and responding to the real and perceived negative outcomes of detention experiences for youth.

Stearns County, Minnesota, implemented an initiative to reduce the number of youth entering the delinquency system. County child protection, corrections, disability services, and attorney collaborated with law enforcement, the judicial system, education, and community agencies to launch the Crossover Youth Initiative. Based on the practice model developed by the Georgetown University Public Policy Institute, evidenced based practices and other promising projects, the Initiative is designed to strengthen how juvenile justice addresses the needs of youth involved in the child welfare or disability services systems who have now “crossed over” into the juvenile justice system. The Crossover Youth Initiative (CYI) has enhanced Stearns County’s strong tradition of collaboration and encourages open dialogue between child welfare, disability services, juvenile justice, the courts, community providers and education to support better outcomes for youth, their families, and their communities. Session will focus on research regarding crossover youth, the jurisdictional planning process, implementation of CYI, and effective strategies to appropriately divert youth from the delinquency system.

Attendees will then utilize these elements and their understanding to design, enhance, and implement, for improvement, their own educational programming. The session will include informational presentation, analytical discussion, and interactive application of the elements and ideas. Interaction and discussion will allow each attendee to individualize the “take away” from the presentation to fit their own facility, program, or classroom. This session would benefit anyone who works in or around at-risk education programs by providing a comprehensive understanding of the myriad of factors that influence the design of a school within a facility that serves at-risk youth. A program designed on clear priorities can maximize services to youth and provide a clear understanding for the community, funding groups, parents, and youth.

Over the last two decades there has been much advancement in the treatment of court involved youth with mental health issues. Assessment and screening tools have improved, access to clinicians and qualified mental health professionals has increased, efforts have been made to limit the effects of the correctional facility environment, and young people have been connected to more community-based re-entry mental health services than ever. However, as the juvenile justice system downsizes, and the profile of youth in facilities reflects higher needs and risks, there has been a troubling trend regarding the use of practices that are not conducive to treating mental health conditions. This session will focus on providing participants information on the need for treatment in juvenile justice facilities, prevalence of mental health disorders, relationships between mental health and delinquency, strategies for change, and the overview of a model designed for trauma responsive treatment and mental health in a residential setting.

The session describes findings from the Pathways to Desistance study, a multi-site, longitudinal study of serious adolescent offenders as they make the transition from adolescence into early adulthood (a 7-year period). We will focus on two areas with particular relevance for juvenile justice practice. First, we examine the patterns of self-reported offending and official record arrest over a 7-year period, with a focus on changes in the level and type of offending as well as factors that might be related to these changes. Second, we look at how youth perceptions of an institutional environment can influence their behavior upon release and the effects of confinement on development. Finally, we discuss specific ways in which these findings can be used to improve juvenile justice practice.

Reducing the numbers of children entering into a criminal justice system through effective and proportionate diversion and prevention activity is critical to an efficient and child focused juvenile justice service.

Newcastle Youth Offending Team is internationally recognized for its highly successful partnership approach to reducing the numbers of first time entrants to the Juvenile Justice System. We will set out the underpinning critical success factors, the multi-agency roles and lessons learned in reaching the performance evidenced today. We will describe the partnership and Multi disciplinary team and in particular the links with Child Services, Criminal Justice Agencies, Physical and Mental Health services and Education services.

We will explain in detail the structure, evidence base and delivery models of: Community Resolution, Triage and Youth Justice Liaison and Diversion program. These new approaches have demonstrably reduced the numbers of juveniles requiring statutory justice services by over 70% (2007-2013). This success has enabled the service to focus resources on children with complex needs, reducing re-offending, minimizing the use of custody and lowering the risk of vulnerability and serious harm. We will evidence that a local child focused Criminal Justice System can be achieved through innovation rather than legislation.

of instructions. One of the key elements of a flexible delivery mode is the use of e-learning. At Hope Academy, we revamp classroom instruction into online training. Put in online and make it mandatory, in the hopes that the experience would make them more open to taking other courses on their own. The e-learning uses multiple media such as video, slides, and graphics what would be a full day of classroom training into 90-minute segments each day for a week.

The online class also often helps individuals improve their computer skills, which is an asset in other aspects of their jobs. It’s such a different way of doing things than traditional classroom teaching. The student orientation focuses on ensuring that students are familiar with the technology involved, the learning environment, and the concept of facilitated learning.

Everybody is a leader in some capacity of their life. You are in charge of how you respond to things from the time you walk in the door of any new or difficult situation: a meeting, a job, or even a relationship. Leadership expert John Maxwell said, “Everything Rises and Falls with Leadership,” If you are a manager, supervisor, or leader of an organization, the effectiveness of your staff may very well be determined by your effectiveness as a leader. In this workshop, we will take a look at John Maxwell’s book, “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership,” and explore the importance of these laws and how they can help us create an awareness and understanding of the struggles and challenges you will face in your role as a leader. Come fill your leadership toolbox with skills and techniques that will serve you and your organization and can be easily implemented into your organizational culture.

carmen Daugherty, Director of Policy campaign for Youth Justice

room: coe (3rD fl)

Given the overwhelming research, policy positions of professional associations of justice system stakeholders including NPJS, and public opinion research, states have initiated reforms to remove youth from the adult criminal justice system and adult jails.

According to “Trends in Juvenile Justice State Legislation 2001 - 2011” a new report released by the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) 2012, a number of states have undertaken policy reforms in the last decade, including the removal of youth from the adult criminal justice system and from adult jails and prisons.

Under these new policies, youth are retained in the juvenile justice system and therefore are not subject to placement in adult jails. States include Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi, Nevada, Utah, Virginia and Washington. Additionally, some states have changed their state statutes to remove or encourage removal of youth from adult jails such as Colorado, Ohio, Oregon, Texas and Virginia.

This workshop will examine the fascinating, and sometimes disturbing, history of the treatment of the mentally ill in the institutionalized and correctional setting. Particular emphasis will be placed on the examination of legal developments that impact youth and staff in detention facilities. The workshop will also include a survey of current best practices and available resources to assist facilities and practitioners in better serving the needs of this very vulnerable, growing population.

Will Meier, Juvenile court services (ia)


This officer will address the obstacles that have been faced in his own community. This officer will in briefly address 400 years of failed policies and failed attempts by the law enforcement community in working in the Native American community. This officer works out of Woodbury County, Iowa. Woodbury County is located in the northwest corner of Iowa. Sioux City is located in Iowa while South Sioux City is in Nebraska and North Sioux City is in South Dakota. Within a 90-minute drive there are over 10,000 Native Americans. It is not uncommon for the Native people to relocate looking for opportunities. In Woodbury County the disproportionality of the Native juvenile in our detention center is seven times that of a Caucasian juvenile. Over

50 percent of our Native youth do not live with a biological parent and one in three quit school. There is a yearly protest by the Native community at Juvenile Court and juvenile probation. Through addressing cultural issues this officer has worked with the Native Community in creating a program called Native Youth Standing Strong. Through this collaborative effort between juvenile probation, social services, and the Native community this officer has been allowed an unusual access into the Native community. This access has included many different types of ceremonies and cultural practices throughout the mid west, including the sun dance, kettle ceremony, naming ceremony, inipi (sweat lodge), quarrying Pipe Stone and healing ceremonies. Often this officer is the only non-Native person in attendance. This program has received much recognition and has been a proven program to bridging cultural difference and beginning the process of reducing crime and the recidivism rate among our Native Youth. Through open discussion by all in attendance the workshop will assist the attendee in learning how they can help in bridging the differences between law enforcement and the minority community in their own community.

When staff show respect for juveniles’ culture and their individuality, juveniles feel valued. Juveniles who are proud of themselves and their community take care to act responsibly. It can help juveniles to understand how they have harmed other people in the community if they look at crime from the victim’s point of view. It can also help the youth to think about what kind of community culture they are creating when they act. Some youth will be returning to communities with a blend of cultures. By modeling respect for diversity and sensitivity to the differences of others, staff encourage juveniles to value their own culture

John Wells, Ph.D., family empowerment services (Mi)


New research on recidivism after discharge from residential programming demonstrates that there is a need for new reentry delivery systems with greater parent involvement to lower recidivism rates and possible lengths of stay in residential and foster care. Often youth return “healthier” than their home environment. Changes in technology have created the possibility of involving families in spite of distance and travel. The implications of increasing family involvement in residential programming will be discussed. Strategies to engage resistant families will be presented.

WEDNESDAY 1:30 PM-3:OO PM WORKSHOPSCurrent research on bullying shows that many students with bullying-type behavior do not lack self-esteem or are isolated from their peers. In fact, many bullies are just the opposite - equipped with good social skills and possess natural leadership abilities. The issue with the typical bully’s leadership style is that it is guided by anti-social behaviors. This session discusses the importance of tapping into a bully’s natural leadership ability and developing pro-social leadership skills that can be used for the pro-social change in schools and the elevation of peers. The bottom line is that bullies are motivated by the power he/she receives through these anti-social skills. It’s time to flip the script and make these skills work for pro-social change.

Whenever something “goes wrong” where people are involved one of the first questions to be answered during the “incident reconstruction” is “how was that person trained?” Training is a critical component of our jobs and making sure that new staff are trained adequately helps to ensure that state agency and local facility liability are protected. This workshop will explain how the statewide job task analysis completed for entry level Youth Workers (line staff) was used to retool both the new Youth Worker Academy training curriculum as well as creating a Field Training Instructors curriculum that would meet the needs of the new worker during their on-the-job training. In addition to discussing the results of research tool, this workshop will also outline statewide implementation, selection process, training and follow-up design of the Field Training Instructor Program.

Change is inevitable – organizational, individual, developmental, etc, so we will close out the Leadership Series/Track looking at change management. In this session we will look at a model for personal change as well as one for organizational change. The traditional management approach to organizational change is presented along with a six-stage model that emphasizes a more transformational approach to change. Through a facilitated change activity, participants will explore the seven predictable dynamics of change. The session will culminate with participants planning for an effective change (organizational, personal, programmatic, or other).

The National Partnership for Juvenile Services would like to extend its sincere thanks to all of the faculty for their commitment to the 19th National Symposium on Juvenile Services.

CERTIFIED JUVENILE SERVICES PRACTITIONER

Since 1968 the National Juvenile Detention Association (NJDA), a founding partner of the National Partnership for Juvenile Services (NPJS), has sought to improve the quality of the juvenile justice workforce. NPJS is pleased you have shown an interest in joining ranks with other concerned practitioners across the country in becoming an advocate for children, youth and the juvenile justice profession.

The National Juvenile Detention Association’s (NJDA) position statement on Recruitment, Selection, and Retention of Juvenile Detention Professionals opens with the following statement:

The most valuable resource in the juvenile detention field is a highly qualified, committed, and professional workforce who will implement programs and provide meaningful services for detained youth.

In support of this statement, the National Partnership for Juvenile Services (NPJS) is now offering certification for juvenile services practitioners. This certification will serve to provide employers and potential employers with information regarding a practitioner’s education, training, and experience as they relate specifically to the field of juvenile justice, in particular to an individual’s basic understanding and knowledge of the work they will be required to do in a juvenile confinement setting. These requirements reflect what is believed to be minimally necessary for an individual to be an effective practitioner in the field of juvenile services.
