It has succeeded in giving a new, happier life and education to the young people sent there by enlightened and compassionate judges in Cebu who are dedicated to implementing the provisions of Republic Act 9344, or the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act of 2006 (JJWA), that promotes restorative justice.
