About
The Youth Justice Accommodation works with young people in contact with the Juvenile Justice system who are assessed as having a medium to high level of offending related risk/need. YJA primarily works with young people on mandated orders in either community or on exit from detention. The program helps young people integrate with their community and address the issues that are contributing to their offending. In doing so, young people can gain the knowledge and skills they need to address their offending behavior through positive means.
