About Englewood Colorado Juvenile Defense
Our Journey and Mission
2007 marked the birth of Englewood Colorado Juvenile Defense (ECJD), a news website dedicated to shedding light on the critical issues surrounding juvenile defense in Englewood, Colorado. Founded by a group of concerned citizens and legal professionals, our mission has always been to provide unbiased, accurate, and reliable information to both the community and those involved with the juvenile justice system.
Over the years, ECJD has become a trusted source for news, features, and resources related to youth advocacy and defense. We take pride in our journey, which includes several significant milestones:
