SUMMARY
In America, where the world's first federal or national effort was launched in 1997, they are the most replicated Juvenile Justice, Youth Justice, Active Youth Civic Engagement, and Essential Youth Service Program. And, in all 12 Countries, soceity is hard pressed to find a better example of Inclusive Democracy for youth.

More than 15+ types of agencies and organizations administer these volunteer-driven and youth-led diversion programs on a local level. Althought about 15 of these youth-led diversion programs were operational in the 1980's, it was not until 1997, when formal record keeping began. Despite never having been directly funded funded by the U.S. Federal Goverment, these youth-led diversion programs have continued expanding for the past 25 years.

For the first (10) of the past (25) years (1997-2008) there was a federal national project for $500,000 supporting Traning and Technical Assistance to local programs, but there has been NO federal juvenile justice or other funds since 2008. Instead, it's the Youth and Adults residing in these local communities who have been, and continue to be the driving force behind this Global Youth Justice Movement, that is just getting started after 25 Years!

For 25 years in America, there has never been a juvenile justice diversion that has scaled organically locally like our Youth-Led Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court, Youth Peer Court, and Youth Peer Jury Diversion Programs, which are now in 47 States, 35+ Tribes and DC. States like Texas and Florida can easily have 50+ different entities operating these diversion programs, and there can be 10-15 different programs with different names in municipalities and schools. At this Conference, you will learn marketing tips and strategies to help convey to the public what your

This record expansion over the past 25 years has resulted in record numbers of youth who commit crimes, offenses, and violations, being diverted, less entrenched, issued citations, and/or avoided contact with the Justice System, but only if the youth successfully completes the requirements of these diversion programs, which they accepted responsibility to do so.

Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court, Youth Peer Court, and Peer Jury Diverison Programs by the 100's have for 10-15 years used deflection, citations, pending arrests or charges, and other similar measues in many settings running these diverson programs such as Sheriffs, NonProfits, Police, DA Offices, Probation, and other settings. Learn more about these effective practices at this Global Youth Justice Leadership Conference.

For the past 25 years, the local expansion of these Youth-Led Diversion Programs is very well documented on a local, state, and federal level. And, while Juvenile Crime rates in America have plummeted over the past 25 years, as Local Communites undertaken historical efforts to scale these local youth-led diversion programs, there is NO acknoweldgeing any role, let alone the significant role that local communities have played in the historic decline of juvenile crime in America. And, while Mentoring gets $80 Million in Federal Funding, and has not results, or data on Juvenile Justice. At the Conference, find out what we can do about it.

Why Local? Because the federal government has not supported any national efforts or states efforts, such as training and technical assistance since 2008. On August 25th, 2022 -- OJJDP/Office of Justice Programs had another national webinar on this topic, and again dismissed the efforts of 2,000+ communities in America. Despite this, local communities and tribes across America have continued expanding Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court, Youth Peer Court, and Peer Jury Diverison Programs. Juvenile Justice has always been local, as it should be.

This will be dicussed at this 2022 Global Youth Justice Leadership Conference, and how Global Youth Justice, Inc. CEO Scott Bernard Peterson is making sure Congress becomes aware of this, and the public. At this 2022 Leadership Conference, you will find out how you, youth volunteers, and your colleagues can put We the People in to Action.

Uniquely American, the first federal or country-level effort in the world was designed and launched by the United States Department of Justice in 1997. The design applied a people-centered justice approach to Juvenile Justice Diversion, and used a public domain training and technical assistance strategy to scale them locally across America. They are a Rule of Law Model, meaning they are easily adaptable to USA States and Tribes, just like other Countries. In America, Rule of Law mirrors the law and legal system, but instead of a trial, these Diversion Programs for Juveniles are Sentencing Hearings.

ELIGIBILITY
The conference is limited to adults 18+ who are involved in these Youth-Led and Volunteer-Driven Juvenile Justice and Youth Justice Diversion Programs, which most often go by the 7 names below. This includes staff, volunteers, partner agencies, funders, volunters, board members, supporters, funders, and other adults involved in active operational programs.

The decision on lead administering agency or organization is largely left up to the local and state elected, school and public officials. As a result, 95% of the 2,000+ Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court, Youth Peer Court, and Peer Jury Diversion Programs are administered by 15+ different agencies, organizations, and institutions. This new Data was compiled by Harvard University Graduate Students and Global Youth Justice.

Global Youth Justice, Inc. has one of the largest and most diverse networks in America, and Globally, after 25 Years, as it was first launched as a 10-Year Project at the U.S. Department of Justice in 1997 to 2008, by Scott Peterson, before he launched Global Youth Justice, Inc. in 2009, which is still 100% public domain in 2022, like it was in 1997.

HISTORICAL BIO by HISTORICAL SOCIETY of DC CIRCUIT
HONORABLE ARTHUR L. BURNETT, SR.
For anyone looking for hopeful distraction from the doldrums of Covid-19, I can recommend an encounter with the life and career of Arthur Louis Burnett, Sr., now 85 years old. He is a retired Judge of the District of Columbia Superior Court and served as the first African American to be appointed as a United States Magistrate Judge – and he is the subject of a new oral history.

Born in a farmhouse without running water in rural and segregated Virginia in March 1935, Judge Burnett’s rise to accomplishment and his attitude and demeanor combine to create an inspiring American story. He fed the chickens and pigs at home and suffered the indignities of segregation. But he showed promise at an early age. His high school agriculture teacher wanted him to go to Tuskegee Institute to become an agricultural expert. His Baptist minister, with whom he had worked as an assistant youth preacher, urged him to attend Virginia Union Theological Seminary (for “colored” persons).

“But,” as he says, “I wanted to change society and help bring equality and justice to Negroes, seven days a week, not just preach on Sundays on how to get to Heaven.” So, after stellar undergraduate work at Howard University, graduating summa cum laude, he ended up at NYU Law School under unusual circumstances. In 1954, after Brown v. Board of Education, the young Burnett was selected to be the test case to integrate the University of Virginia Law School, where he had applied for admission.

He also applied to New York University School of Law and elsewhere and was accepted at every school – except UVA. But the NAACP made a tactical decision not to proceed legally against Virginia at that time, in light of its focus at the time on the Little Rock integration battle. The Commonwealth of Virginia ultimately agreed to fully fund Burnett’s tuition and living expenses at NYU to avoid a confrontation. Burnett graduated 24th in a class of 267.

The oral history covers Judge Burnett’s subsequent experiences in the Honors Program at the Department of Justice, where he worked for an extended period as a special assistant to Attorney General Robert Kennedy. He later became the Legal Advisor (now called General Counsel) to the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department. In 1969, he was named the first black U.S. Magistrate (later, Magistrate Judge), a position he held for fourteen years during two separate appointments.

He led efforts, along with the Federal Judicial Center, to improve the quality of affidavits for arrest and search warrants. He helped broaden the role of preliminary hearings to permit defense counsel to call witnesses when the government sought to keep a defendant in custody in lieu of bail. And he led the effort to convince Congress to give Magistrate Judges the authority to try civil cases with the consent of the parties, sitting as substitute district court judges without requiring a subsequent de novo trial before a federal district judge. He became President of the National Association of United States Magistrates in 1984, and remains proud of his innovative contribution to both the criminal justice and civil litigation systems.

Judge Burnett was appointed to the D.C. Superior Court in 1987 and served as Judge and Senior Judge until 2004. He also worked with Marion Wright Edelman as “Judge in Residence” at the Children’s Defense Fund. After his “retirement,” he continued – and continues to this day – to be involved in the National African American Drug Policy Coalition and several other non-profit organizations.

As a black man growing up in the segregated South, Judge Burnett suffered all the indignities and injustices of the era, as his oral history recounts. But throughout his life, he has retained a remarkable grace and equanimity – making the best of his situation rather than raging against it, but at the same time maintaining a commitment, developed early in life, to remedy injustice.

The Honorable Arthur L. Burnett, Sr. looks forward to meeting everyone in Boston, Massachusetts this November, 2022.

Guest Speaker: Scott established one of USA’s earliest Youth Court Diversion Programs, and served as Executive Director of Youth Courts of the Capital District, Inc. in NY from 1993 to 1997. By 1997, he helped replicated it in 50+ Communities and Tribes in New York. In 1997, he was hired in the Executive Branch of the United States Government, at U.S. Department of Justice (OJJDP) to Launch the World's 1st Federal or National NGO Youth-Led Youth Court Program. By 2008 when he left, these Youth-Led and Volunteer-Driven Diversion Programs had become the most replicated Juvenile Justice Program in America, since the 1st Juvenile Court in 1899 in Cooke County, Illinois.

While at USDOJ for a10+ Years, Scott Peterson served on the Federal Internagency Committee for Education for 10 Years and Federal Mentoring Council for 8 Years. Scott managed more than $250 Million in Federal Grants and Cooperative Agreements in the National Training and Technical Assistane Division, and typically actively managed two to three times more national level projects than other staff in the office, and many of the most high profile projects. Scott led the Federal Effort to Develop Guidelines for the Dependency Court and Delinquency Court, and headed up the 100th Anniversary for the Juvenile Court and 100th Anniversary of Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. Scott has visited more then 150+ Local Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court Diversion Programs in 40 States and traveled to 7 of 11 Countries to help them launch their first Diversion Program.

Scott launched the 1st Federal, 1st Private National, and 1st Global called “Global Youth Justice, Inc.” on Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court and Peer Jury Diversion Programs. He is a graduate of the Prestigious FBI Citizens Academy, has received numerous Awards ranging from the United States Attorney’s Office to Federal Bureau of Investigation to United Nations. Scott is Founder and CEO of Global Youth Justice, Inc. (2009-Current). In 2021, Scott designed and launched the 1st Annual 9/11 DAY Flag of Honor Across America Memorials for the 20th Anniversary of the Tragic Events of September 11, 2001. It became the largest 9/11 Day Multi-Site Project in 2021, and 2022, and was also selected as 1 of only 5 Federal 9/11 Day Projects to Launch on the 20th Anniversary of September 11, 2022.

Scott Peterson and the Honorable Arthur L. Burnett, Sr. are designing a scaleable Adult Version of Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court Diversion Programs called the Community Acceptance Program, a Front-End Diversion Program for 18 year old to Seniors. It will be Public Domain, Volunteer-Driven, and use a similar People Centered Justice Approach, that Scott used in 1997 at the United States Department of Justice, when designing the 10 year strategy to scaled local Youth/Teen/Student/Peer Court Diversion Programs, Youth Peer Court, and Peer Jury.

After graduating from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1991, Scott's first job was opening a homeless youth shelter in New York, where he also worked for three years, and was appointed to the Albany County Homeless Coalition Board, Town of Colonie Youth Bureau Board, and by New York Governor George Pataki to the NYS Division of Criminal Justice Services Juvenile Advisory Board. Scott is the only federal employee to be a whistle blower to expose the Fraud that goes on, as a result of the Federal Government not releasing the Score and Rankings of Billions in Federal Grants each year, and selecting applicants scoring 10 and 20 points lower than other higher scoring applicants.
