This event will highlight examples of good practice, good outcomes and suggest ways we can support young people to sustain community disposals.

We are delighted to welcome as our keynote speakers, Professor Fergus McNeil, Scottish Centre for Crime and Justice Research, who will set the scene at the beginning of the event, and Inspector Lynn Ross, Grampian Police, who will talk about the 'whole systems approach' being delivered in the Grampian area.

We will also premiere a new DVD, made by young people in Ayrshire, about young people in Ayrshire who have experience of the youth justice system.

There will be the opportunity to participate in workshops reflecting the range of youth justice approaches being delivered by partners, and we will be seeking your views on the way forward for youth justice via 'The Pod' - an interactive consultation tool.
