Hoy Quiero ApoyARTE - Art Auction

"Hoy Quiero #ApoyARTE" is JJAI's 2021 art auction to raise funds for the benefit of the boys and girls living in detention center in Latin America during the COVID-19 pandemic.

16 artists from USA and Mexico donated their artwork and now you can own one of these pieces and help us change the lives of hundreds of children who have been living in a double lockdown for almost a year now.

Art can mean many things, but for these children it means hope, love, and empathy.

All donations through final bids will go directly into all our aid programs to assist these boys and girls during the pandemic.

Juvenile Justice Advocates advocates for policy reforms in the juvenile justice system and improve respect for human rights for the most vulnerable.

Our vision is that children should only be imprisoned as a last resort, in extreme circumstances, and for the shortest period of time possible.
We work towards this goal by:

*Providing advice, consulting, capacity building, training and other services to governments and non-governmental organizations to improve the respect for human rights and implement proven strategies.

*Conducting research on and advocating for increased access to justice for marginalized populations in the criminal justice system.

*Assisting implementation of reforms that reduce over-use of detention, improve prison conditions, improve and establish community reintegration programs and decrease delinquency among juveniles and other marginalized populations.
