Safeguarding Children
The
Office of the Attorney General is committed to making sure our children
are able to grow up in a safe community. As part of this commitment,
we have established the Youth Advocacy Initiative, a project that focuses
on juvenile justice and youth advocacy. In addition, we are working on
a number of programs designed to keep kids safe including "Surf
Safe: Navigating the Hidden Dangers of the Internet," and a teen
dating violence education campaign.
Many of the programs listed on this page are part of the Attorney General's Youth Advocacy Initiative, a project that focuses on juvenile justice and youth advocacy. You may also find additional information about the Youth Advocacy Initiative and other programs related to community safety on our Keeping Communities Safe page. In the future, look for a link here to our Kids' Page containing activities and information for kids of all ages.
