    What juvenile defense means for Michigan

    In 2023, Michigan passed the Justice for Kids and Communities Act with 19 juvenile justice reform bills, but the 20th bill ensuring youths’ right to counsel was signed into law three years later by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The Michigan Indigent Defense Commission (MIDC) now has authority to establish statewide juvenile defense standards, improving legal support for children.
