Additional Information
The Youth Justice Agency aims to make communities safer by helping children to stop offending. The Agency works with children aged 10-17 years who have offended or are at serious risk of offending.
The Agency provides a range of services, often delivered in partnership with others, to help children to address their offending behaviour, divert them from crime, assist their integration into the community and to meet the needs of victims of crime. These front-line services delivered by the Youth Justice Services and Custodial Services directorates.
The Agency facilitates youth conferences and is tasked with the supervision of Youth Conference Orders, Attendance Centre Orders, Community Responsibility Orders and Reparation Orders. The Agency also delivers a number of interventions designed to challenge and support young people, empower families to support their children, integrate young people into their communities and promote reparation in order to prevent reoffending.
