Our latest review brings together evidence and emerging good practice that are shown to support young adults to move away from the criminal justice system.

This briefing aims to help Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) develop plans that facilitate the prevention and reduction of crime by including a distinct focus on young adults.

This publication analyses results from two national surveys that aim to understand young adults’ views of policing. Assessing responses by gender, ethnicity, and life circumstances, we explore how young adults’ trust and confidence in policing can be improved.

This research, based on the perspectives of young adults who have committed repeated low-level offences, explores guiding principles for trauma and poverty responsive policing.

This report demonstrates how the issues of poverty, trauma and policing interact for young adults aged 18-25. It argues that there is significant scope for extending our understanding of how different forms of inequality come together in young adults’ lives.

This briefing focuses on young adults who are, or are at risk of being, in the ‘revolving door’ of crisis and crime. As previous briefings have highlighted, these young adults come into the criminal justice system for relatively minor, non-violent offences.
