Diverting Young Adults Away from the Crisis and Crime Cycle
This review brings together evidence and emerging good practice to highlight effective ways to support young adults in moving away from the criminal justice system.
Too many young people come into the criminal justice system because of multiple unmet needs. Diverting them into support and treatment can help them grow out of a cycle of crisis and crime and realise their full potential. The right support can reduce crime in local areas and prevent young people from becoming future victims of gangs and exploitation.
