Youth Justice Transformation in Action
Diversion - A Collaboration with Court and Community Stakeholders (ft. Robert Bermingham)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Diversion is a key tool for supporting youth outside of the formal justice system. When done well, it supports public safety and youth accountability while involving victims and stakeholders in the decision-making process. In this episode, Robert (Bob) Bermingham delivers his first-hand account on how Fairfax County, Virginia implemented and sustained successful diversion practices and offers takeaways for how other jurisdictions can do the same. The outcomes achieved in Fairfax County are impactful, including decreased court dockets, reduced recidivism, and increased collaboration amongst stakeholders.
