Aim/Purpose:

Sacro Youth Services deliver a range of specific services to young people between the age of eight and 17 years. The services are based on restorative principles and can be provided as a preventative measure, to address issues identified as underpinning antisocial behaviour which have caused concern, and to help support the young people and family members in preventing these young people going on to offend. We also work with young people to keep them out of formal systems including “early and effective interventions” and working with those displaying harmful sexual behaviour. If offences have taken place, then Restorative Justice Services focus on the harm, offering support to those affected by and those responsible for the offence. The aim is to address offending behaviour in a way which empowers the people harmed, those responsible and wider community members to resolve the ‘conflict’ in a meaningful way.
