When It Clicked: A Better Way to Treat Kids Who Make Mistakes
<p>This week we're introducing you to When It Clicked, whose newest season focuses on what a better justice system can look and feel like.</p> <p>How can we think differently about accountability for kids in the justice system? Hollywood producer Scott Budnick built his career making blockbuster hits like The Hangover, but his real passion is working with incarcerated youth. In this episode of When It Clicks, Scott talks about how one visit to a juvenile hall reshaped his purpose and set him on a mission to support young people caught in the justice system. As founder of the Anti-Recidivism Coalition and CEO of 1Community, Scott is helping youth rewrite their stories – and pushing for a system that gives them a real chance.</p> <p>Learn more about the Anti Recidivism Coalition at <a href="http://antirecidivism.org">antirecidivism.org</a> and 1Community at<a href="http://1community.com"> 1community.com</a>.</p> <p>Follow When it Clicked wherever you get your podcasts or head to:<a href="https://lemonada.lnk.to/WhenItClickedfd"> https://lemonada.lnk.to/WhenItClickedfd</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
