Who We Support
Trust-Based Relational Intervention Practitioner Training
Citizens for Juvenile Justice (CJJ) is a non-profit citizens advisory committee established to aid in more effective administration of the law relating to youth. CJJ provides counsel, advice, and assistance to the Oklahoma County Juvenile Bureau (OCJB) for the purpose of enhancing services to at-risk youth, in part by applying for grants to help fund projects and programs that will benefit the community and the cause of juvenile justice. The mission of the OCJB is to enhance public safety by reducing juvenile delinquency. The OCJB will use this funding to support the training of practitioners in Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI). TBRI is a trauma-informed practice designed to address the complex needs of youth impacted by trauma by integrating connecting, empowering, and correcting principles.
