The mission of the Florida Juvenile Justice Foundation is to solicit and steward private gifts to promote education and public safety through effective prevention, intervention and treatment services that strengthen families and positively change the lives of troubled youth.



Welcome

The Foundation serves to change lives — the lives of students, the lives of their parents, the lives of the citizens in our community — by promoting delinquency prevention, intervention and educational opportunities for youth.

A board of community leaders makes up the Foundation's board of directors. Collectively, the Board creates policies, provides direction, raises funds, and stewards all funds raised to enhance the activities of the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice.

Youth Artwork

The images on our home page showcase Florida Department of Juvenile Justice youth artwork from the Volusia Regional Detention Center in Daytona Beach. The artwork was created in the self- contained Exceptional Education classroom, that focuses on youth with emotional/behavior disabilities. Marianne Henry, the classroom teacher, infuses art throughout her lesson plans to engage the students and help them focus on their own abilities.
