The Journal of Juvenile Law and Policy (JJLP) at UC Davis is excited to host our annual symposium on February 8th, 2013 from 9:00 am until 4:30 pm in Room 1001 (near entrance to new wing).  This year’s symposium is titled From the Capitol to the Classroom: A Look at the Intersection of Education, Law & Policy and it will be focused on educational issues affecting California's youth today.  Our speaker panels feature community leaders, scholars and activists who approach educational issues from a wide variety of viewpoints.

Already confirmed are: Delaine Eastin (Former State Superintendent), Diane Glick (Assistant to Joan Buchanan, Chair of the State Assembly Education Committee), and Bruce Fuller (UC Berkeley School of Education), Brooks Allen (Director of Education Advocacy for ACLU of Southern CA), Lizz Guillien (Public Advocates), Eric Lerum (Students First), and Stella Levy (President of Restorative Schools Vision Project in Sacramento).

We are excited to announce that Professor William Koski from Stanford Law School will deliver the keynote address on educational issues that California youth face today. 

We welcome anyone interested in the field of education or juvenile justice to this event, including those interested in prosecution, defense, policy and advocacy work.  We hope you will join us at UC Davis School of Law in February!
