Youth Justice Advocacy

Youth Justice Advocacy involves supporting young people who are involved in the justice system, ensuring their rights are protected and their voices heard. Advocates work to ensure fair treatment, suitable legal representation, and access to necessary services like mental health or education. They also help young people understand their options and navigate complex legal processes. The goal is to promote fair, respectful, and constructive responses to youth offending, focusing on rehabilitation and positive development rather than punishment alone.
