The Everychild Foundation announced a $1 million grant to the Center for Juvenile Law and Policy at Loyola Law School this week, with a goal of stopping the “school-to-prison pipeline for ‘crossover youth,’” the name often used for foster youth who end up in the juvenile justice system.
Everychild, which was founded by Palisadian Jacqueline Caster, awards the grant annually.
This year’s funding will help launch the Everychild Integrated Educational and Legal Advocacy Project at Loyola.
