Preventing youth crime

Background

We are developing a strategy which aims to prevent children and young people from becoming involved in anti-social and criminal behaviour.

The strategy aims to find ways to identify the young people who are most at risk of being involved in anti-social behaviour. It will identify the most effective types of intervention.

A draft outline of the Youth Crime Prevention Strategy is available below.

The consultation

We asked for your views on what should be included in the strategy. We asked for comments from anyone involved with young people who are at risk of offending, re-offending or being victims of anti-social or criminal behaviour.

The consultation period closed on Friday 27 June and we are not able to consider any further responses, so please do not use the comments form attached to the draft strategy.

What happens next

We are considering all the responses received. Your input will help us to determine the scope of the strategy, which will be finalised at the end of the year.

More information about the expected publication date of the report will be given here as it becomes available.
