a.  Youth Development

c.  Juvenile Justice

Smart Money: Documented Cost Savings That Increase Peace and Justice

 

This is highly credible information provided by outstanding people and organizations so I suggest we disseminate it widely.   Collectively, there are tens, if not, hundreds of billions of dollars of savings that have been identified.

 

This is still a work in progress since I'm diving deeper into each of these documents to pinpoint exactly which pages have the cost savings info for quicker retrieval by users.

 

Also, the spreadsheet identifies the authors and contributing/collaborating organizations in order to facilitate the natural networking opportunities that arise with these like-minded people/groups.

 

Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] with any questions or comments you may have.

 

Peace,
