Description
Croydon Youth Offending Team seeks to develop and maintain a service that recognises and values difference and challenges youth offending through purposeful and timely intervention in order to increase life-chances and make Croydon a safer place to live, work and visit.
What is a Youth Offending Team (YOT)?
Youth Offending Teams exist in all areas and were fully established in April 2000 by the Youth Justice Board. These teams were introduced to improve performance in tackling offending by children and young people aged 10-- 17.
Youth Offending Teams consist of representatives from Social Services, Probation, the Police, Health, Education and other local organisations. This multi-agency approach is designed to address the ‘risk’ factors associated with offending and to meet the holistic needs of young people.
