## Resource

In Nashville, high schoolers are taking the reins of justice in a groundbreaking Youth Court program, handling real juvenile cases like curfew violations and minor theft—offering teens a voice, an alternative to traditional courts, and a path toward restoration. After intense training and mock trials, these students don’t just judge—they understand the bigger picture behind each case, recognizing the challenges beyond the offense. With recidivism rates under four percent across Tennessee’s similar programs, this initiative proves that empowering youth leads to lasting change—not just for individuals, but for entire school communities.
