Advocacy for Juvenile Justice

This Know Your Rights guide from the National Center for Youth Law helps young people understand what to do during interactions with law enforcement, including when they are stopped, taken into custody, questioned, or searched. It also explains young people’s rights to remain silent and speak with an attorney before police questioning, with specific information about protections for youth under California law.
