SynopsisPositive Youth Justice offers a powerful new way of approaching youth justice issues: Children First, Offenders Second (CFOS). Aiming to reorient the way that the justice system thinks about and handles young offenders, CFOS argues that the primary focus should be on the fact that these offenders are children, addressing the nature and consequences of their criminal actions in light of that fundamental fact. Already in use in Wales, CFOS is a promising blueprint for building a child-friendly and inclusive approach to criminal justice issues relating to youth., This topical, accessibly written book moves beyond established critiques to outline a model of positive youth justice: Children First, Offenders Second. Already in use in Wales, the proposed model promotes child-friendly, diversionary, inclusive, engaging, promotional practice and legitimate partnership between children and adults which can serve as a blueprint for other local authorities and countries. Setting out a progressive, positive and principled model of youth justice, the book will appeal to academics, students, practitioners and policy makers seeking to improve working practices and outcomes and will make an important contribution to the debate on youth justice policy., This topical book outlines a model of positive youth justice: Children First, Offenders Second (CFOS), which promotes child-friendly, diversionary, inclusionary, engaging, promotional practice and legitimate partnership between children and adults to serve as a blueprint for other local authorities and countries.
