This reference guide issued by the Interstate Commission for Juveniles provides basic information for cases involving the Interstate Compact for Juveniles (IJC).
This publication by the Interstate Commission for Juveniles provides basic information for cases involving the Interstate Compact for Juveniles (IJC). The Interstate Compact for Juveniles (ICJ) is the law that regulates the interstate movement of juveniles who are under court supervision or have run away to another state. ICJ is a contract that has been adopted as law throughout the United States. Therefore, all state and local officials are legally bound to honor and enforce the terms of the Compact. The compact supersedes any conflicting state law or policy. Each member state operates a state ICJ Office that manages interstate juvenile cases, including transfers of supervision, travel, and returns. The publication also provides basic information about communication; transfers of supervision (sending and receiving cases for supervision); returns of runaways and others (voluntary and nonvoluntary); and travel permits.
