| The Indiana Family Project, a program co-sponsored by the Center for Human Growth and the Center for Adolescent and Family Studies at the IU School of Education, in collaboration with the Monroe County Circuit Court and Probation Department, was recently selected to receive the Citizens for Community Justice’s Haines Turner Award.
Each year, Citizens for Community Justice Inc. recognizes individuals, groups or businesses for significant contributions to restorative justice and the well-being of children and youth in the Monroe County community. The Indiana Family Project is designed to assist adolescents and their families struggling with problems of conduct, drug use/abuse and delinquency.
The Haines Turner Award is named in memory of an IU professor who advocated for alternatives to incarceration for offenders.
