Care leavers want to be supported by care professionals who approach them in a respectful manner. The project also aims at compiling an Ampelographic book recording the main characters of local vine varieties as well as developing a set of guidelines for sustainable agricultural practices in Greek, Bulgarian, English and Braille.

Care leavers want flexibility, respect and recognition of their individualism, as well as tailor-made responses that meet their individual needs. Project Goals Identify and educate key stakeholders about policies and practices that divert status offenders and other non-delinquent youth from formal juvenile court involvement; Identify and educate key stakeholders about policies and practices that eliminate the use of locked detention for status offenders and other non-delinquent youth; and Inform and advocate for local, state, and federal policies and practices to support effective family-connected and community-based continuums of service for status offenders and other non-delinquent youth.

This project builds on findings from the Prepare for Leaving Care project The CJJ SOS Project is an extension of these efforts, and will help CJJ members, allies, and the states achieve better outcomes for this youth population, their families, and their communities nationwide.

Through joint recommendations to relevant authorities, the project aims at the development of the conditions for the establishment of PDO accreditation for the local varieties.
