#ClientStory: “Joshua’s” path into the juvenile legal system was a heartbreaking one. At a very young age, he was forced into the primary caregiver role for his mom (who had substance use issues) and younger siblings. His dedication to the safety and well-being of his family was fierce and shaped by early tragedies. ⁠

⁠For many children in New Orleans, their stories are similar; a childhood shaped by adult responsibilities and repeated tragedies. ⁠
⁠
Our team (with the help of Joshua's mother) assembled a solid case for his early release. But far too often, children like Joshua are left unsupported and failed by the systems and structures that should be helping them grow.⁠ Read Joshua's full story on our website.
