, became involved in the project several years ago when Judge Lina Hidalgo's administration asked the group to help the county re-imagine its juvenile incarceration system, Ananthakrishnan said.
The county's reinvestment fund aims to put dollars back into these neighborhoods to keep kids from getting caught in that cycle. The Harris County Commissioners Court unanimously voted to create the Youth Justice Community Reinvestment Fund in February 2021. The funding has not yet been distributed, but soon will be awarded to four to seven small, grassroots non-profits that work with youth.
The number of kids involved in the youth justice system has dropped significantly in recent years in Harris County, with fewer young people in detention and more of them in diversion programs, according to information included in the report.
