JUMP StArts supports high-quality arts education and artists-in-residence programs for youth who have been impacted by or are at elevated risk of being engaged in the justice system. These may be students who have been arrested, are on probation, or are incarcerated at a juvenile justice facility or at a court-appointed educational institution; these may also be youth who are living homeless, whose parent or guardian has been incarcerated, who are refugees, or who are pregnant or are parents themselves. Projects must be designed and developed in partnership between an arts organization and a juvenile justice facility or social service entity to create arts-learning opportunities that foster positive socio-emotional, behavioral, academic, and developmental outcomes for these priority youth.
