The Children’s Justice Alliance was formed in 2004 by Claudia Black, Ben DeHaan, Sharon Darcy, and Mark Eddy, PhD. to take a programmatic and systemic approach to improving outcomes for children whose parents are involved in the criminal justice system.
The primary impetus for creating the Children’s Justice Alliance was to give parents and families the tools they need to break the preventable cycle of intergenerational criminality.
In 2011, the Children's Justice Alliance merged with its long-time partner, Pathfinders of Oregon. As a program of Pathfinders of Oregon, CJA continues to focus on creating tools and programs to help families lead successful, helathy lives.
