HISTORY:

Arising from a 1999 European Conference titled "Young People, Crime and Disadvantage," a Network was established to bring people together with an interest in the policy and practice relating to supporting young people at
risk

AIM AND OBJECTIVES:

The overall aim of the organisation is to provide a network for practitioners to promote effective interventions for young people at risk.

The objectives of the organisation are:

  • To facilitate links through local, regional and cross-border networks.
  • To promote partnership and inter-agency co-operation.
  • To collate, document and share models of good practice.
  • To provide informed support for practitioners, within an atmosphere of mutual respect.
  • To influence policy and programme development.
