Prevention

Criminology AU promotes innovative gender and age appropriate crime prevention strategies

Juvenile prevention

Criminologist AU actively supports initiatives which reduce the risk of youths entering the criminal justice or juvenile corrections system.  Analysis of criminological influences are first identified before strategies to assist juveniles maintain non-offending and non-recidivist pathways.

Holistic approaches, like that of headspace (headspace.org.au), provide a range of services encompassing physical, psychological and social factors to support juveniles.  Contact Criminologist AU for a referral to appropriate youth support services.
