The number of children in Kansas foster care has reached record highs. While most states are reducing adult incarceration, the number of Kansans in prison continues to climb, and our state has one of the nation's highest rates of driver's license suspensions caused by court fees and fines. The state's juvenile justice system, which is transitioning to community alternatives to incarceration, disproportionately punishes youth of color and other marginalized young people. We're working to: 

• Hold the state accountable for fixing the foster care crisis
• Support Kansans directly affected by the state's juvenile justice and foster care systems to become advocacy leaders​
• Advocate for reforms in Kansas's criminal justice system
