Why This Indicator Matters
Developed and supported by the Annie E. Casey Foundation, the Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative (JDAI) is one strategy
that many communities are using to address the overuse of detention and disproportionate minority contact. JDAI focuses
on eliminating inappropriate or unnecessary use of secure detention, minimizing re-arrest and failure-to-appear rates pending
adjudication, ensuring appropriate conditions of confinement in secure facilities and redirecting public finances to sustain successful
reforms.
