Engaging Families

with families of youth?
• What are some CHALLENGES to
working with families of youth?

Why Work with Families?• Families are experts on their own lives.• Family members know each other best.• Family is a natural support system for
early crisis intervention.• Families have a long-term investment that
outlasts treatment and government interventions.

Family Justice Program
• Vera’s Family Justice Program provides extensive training and strategic support to government and community partners to help them effectively draw on the resources of families and communities. These systemic interventions are designed to benefit people at greatest risk of cycling in and out of the justice system.
• The Vera Institute of Justice is an independent nonprofit that combines expertise in research, demonstration projects, and technical assistance to help leaders in government and civil society improve the systems people rely on for justice and safety.

Family Engagement Matters
A family-systems approach not only reduced recidivism rates for justice-involved youth as compared with other models of treatment, but also reduced rates of siblings’ involvement in the justice system. (Klein, 1977)
The protective effect of receiving parental visits during incarceration exists regardless of the quality of the parent-adolescent relationship. (Monahan, Goldweber, Cauffman, 2011)
