July is here, and that means Chris and Sammy are sharing a new statistic and a new focus on the Be the Difference Podcast! Join them as they dive into a conversation on justice for juveniles at risk of incarceration, how the Back2Back Cincy team is stepping into this conversation and returning years to local youth who would otherwise be behind bars, and the reasons why these conversations matter.

In this episode, Chris and Sammy discuss transforming punitive consequences into a time of healing for juveniles in Cincy and how conversation is changing the approaches taken for youth with trauma who have committed a crime. Hear how new information is being presented to public defenders and judges and how, together, adults are advocating on behalf of youth who would otherwise be tried as adults, as layers of understanding are being added to the conversation.
