Ministry of Justice statistics show that community sentences are increasingly effective at preventing youth reoffending.

Sessions at this conference will provide updates on these and other key issues including:

- Strategic guidance on the new powers and orders transforming the youth justice system

- Local innovations using a range of practical approaches to prevent youth reoffending whilst cutting costs

- Building community confidence in non-custodial solutions through a victim centred approach

- Early intervention to prevent the escalation of offending behaviour

- The end-to-end process and multi agency working to ensure successful rehabilitation and resettlement plans

Attend this event to learn how to tackle youth crime more effectively. Ensure that you can provide positive routes out for young offenders whilst giving the public the best possible protection.
