Members of the Tennessee legislature announced this week the formation of a new task force focusing on the state’s juvenile justice system. Called the Joint Ad Hoc Tennessee Blue Ribbon Task Force on Juvenile Justice, it will be chaired by Speaker Beth Harwell, R-Nashville, and Senate Majority Leader Mark Norris, R-Collierville. The task force will “undertake a comprehensive review” of the juvenile justice system and develop policy recommendations.
