Youth Justice Service - Restorative Practice

We will listen to you and tailor our support to your needs. There are many ways that we can help you and we will work with you to help you understand your rights and the support available to you.

This is a free service.

Examples of how we can support are:

• Updating you on the child's progress throughout the youth justice process and their order.
• Informing you and exploring Restorative Justice for you and your immediate support network.
• Representing your views and safety needs at Youth Justice Meetings.
• Supporting you within the Compensation process.
• Signposting and referring you to appropriate support services.
• Liaising with external agencies (the police, your GP, your workplace) on your behalf, where appropriate.

How do we support young victims?

If you are 17 years old or under, we will need permission from your Parent or caregiver in order to work with you.

We can offer all of the support above, and victims who are under the age of 18, can also work alongside Birmingham Youth Justice Service partners and participate in support offers and activities if they want to. 

These include:

• The Music Studio
• Boxing
• Cooking skills
• Gardening skills
• Speech and Language assessment
• Mental health Support
• Drugs and Alcohol advice and support
• Woodwork and carpentry
• Girls Empowerment Team (GET)
