The exceptional impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the youth justice system are documented in a new report published today as part of the UKRI funded MCYS and AYJ project exploring the impacts of Covid-19 on the Youth Justice System
COVID-19 and the youth justice system
The comprehensive report finds that COVID-19 has devastatingly exacerbated the issues faced by children affected by the youth justice system. The review calls for urgent and coordinated action to prevent more children being drawn into the criminal justice system in the future, due to increased vulnerabilities and social problems as a result of the crisis.
