The New England Youth Diversion Summit is where purpose meets practice—and empowerment fuels action. In just one day, participants gain tools, strategies, and connections that equip them to support youth in diversion and create brighter futures across New England.

Hosted and managed by the New Hampshire Juvenile Court Diversion Network (NHJCDN) in collaboration with partners and representatives from across New England, the Summit was created to bring together professionals working to build fair, effective, and youth-centered systems.

After several years of success hosting a Summit serving a New Hampshire audience—and doubling in size—the NHJCDN is proud to expand its reach and launch the first-ever regional Summit. This one-day, high-impact event brings together professionals, programs, and partners from all six New England states to share knowledge, strengthen partnerships, and advance diversion efforts across the region.

Through interactive sessions, regional collaboration, and shared innovation, participants will gain practical strategies, valuable resources, and meaningful connections they can bring back to their communities and put into action.

Join us for a day of learning, connecting, and strengthening the work that supports youth, families, and communities across New England.
