Description
Child First: Developing a New Youth Justice System This book explores the development and implementation of Child First as an innovative guiding principle for improving youth justice systems. It challenges traditional risk-led approaches, instead focusing on positive child outcomes and safer communities. The book has been widely adopted across England and Wales, Northern Ireland, and several western jurisdictions, becoming a key reform principle for youth justice. It offers a dynamic integration of theory, research, policy, and practice, making it an essential read for students and professionals in the field. Written by experts in the field, including Professor Stephen Case and Professor Neal Hazel, Child First provides a critical analysis of progress and challenges in establishing a progressive evidence-led youth justice system.
