88. How can we keep students out of the criminal justice system? with Tony Lowden

According to the American Civil Liberties Union, school disciplinary policies often disproportionately affect black students. Black students are suspended or expelled at three times the rate of white students and are three times more likely to enter the juvenile justice system. How can we hold students accountable for their actions and still provide support in the ways that they need? What are some successful prevention approaches for keeping students out of the criminal justice system? And how can we holistically reintegrate students that are currently in the juvenile justice system? In this episode, Kevin discusses disrupting the school-to-prison pipeline with VP of Reintegration and Community Engagement at ViaPath Technologies, Tony Lowden.
