This episode features highlights from the MCU Raise the Age Virtual Rally, recorded on December 10th over Zoom.

On Jan 1, 2021, Missouri becomes the latest of 45 states who have raised the age of juvenile jurisdiction! This means 17-year-olds will no longer be automatically tried and incarcerated as adults. But there is more work to be done because the Missouri Legislature has left this law unfunded. Hear from those impacted, learn about the law, and join us in calling for funding "Raise the Age." Contact [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] to urge them to act!
