What should juvenile justice look like?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with David Muhammed. He's just taken over as the head of the Alameda County Probation Department. He spent time in jail when he was young, so he has first hand experience with the system. He has ambitious plans to completely transform the system, specifically the treatment of youth. But is it possible to implement reforms from within? Join us at 10 or send an email to feedback@yourcallradio.org. What would you change? It's Your Call with Holly Kernan and you.

Guests:
David Muhammed, chief probation officer of Alameda County

James Bell, founder and executive director of the W. Haywood Burns Institute
