The juvenile justice reforms Kansas Appleseed championed have resulted in a reduction of over 80% to the number of youth in the state's juvenile justice system. Kansas Appleseed continues to work with formerly incarcerated youth, state agencies, and partner organizations to ensure community-based alternatives to incarceration are implemented. Kansas Appleseed continued advocating for kids and families affected by the state foster care system, working with the Strengthen Families Rebuild Hope coalition and with legislators interested in adding much needed oversight to the failing system. The federal class-action lawsuit filed in November 2018 on behalf of youth in foster care, was settled in early 2021, resulting in safeguards to prevent extreme placement instability and to provide adequate access to mental health resources.
