Know Your Rights: McKinney-Vento Act (education rights for youth experiencing homelessness)
BayLegal’s Youth Justice team has assembled a Know Your Rights document and resource list on the McKinney-Vento Act’s protections for youth experiencing homelessness. Many thanks to the YJ team’s high school interns, who have worked this summer to research and design this resource!
Know Your Rights: Youth Interactions with Law Enforcement
BayLegal’s Youth Justice practice has produced a helpful guide to youth interactions with police, ICE, and other law enforcement. It is important that young people know their rights and how to assert and protect them in encounters with law enforcement—especially for black or brown youth, who are more often mistreated by police. The guide includes a one-page overview of the four phrases and key concepts to remember when dealing with law enforcement, with additional details, strategies, and resources on the following pages.
