Work with victims of crime
The YOS works with young people, victims and the community by encouraging participation in restorative justice. Restorative justice is designed to redress the balance in the criminal justice system by offering victims a chance to be heard.
Work with the community
Since its inception in 1998 the YOS has been involved in a number of community projects. Nearly all young people involved in the youth justice system are required to carry out reparation. More information about reparation
