Overview
The purpose of the Youth Justice Service (YJS) is to prevent offending and reduce re-offending by children and young people. Youth Justice Services are sometimes known as Youth Offending Teams or Youth Offending Services. Nottingham City YJS consists of staff from Nottingham City Council, Police, Probation and Health, and is overseen by a partnership Board chaired by the Corporate Director for Children and Adults.
The YJS supervises those referred by the Court or Police on a statutory basis, or those that have been referred to work with early intervention services by Police and other partners on a voluntary basis. For more information about Nottingham City Youth Justice Services see contacts below.
