We must stop overlooking young girls and women in the criminal justice system
Girls and young women are overlooked in the criminal justice system – they are ignored, misunderstood and misrepresented. That is why at both the Alliance for Youth Justice (AYJ) and Agenda we wanted to find out more about what was happening to them and their experiences of the criminal justice system, from contact with the police and the courts, to probation and prison.
A New Year’s Message from our Director
Our Director Pippa Goodfellow writes to wish our members, partners and colleagues a Happy New Year, reflecting on our work together through 2020 and looking ahead to plans for 2021.
Young Women’s Justice Project Literature Review
Along with Agenda, the alliance for women and girls at risk, we are publishing our literature review as part of the Young Women’s Justice Project which shines a light on the experiences of young women aged 17–25 years old in contact with the criminal justice system, including the experiences of girls transitioning into adult services as they turn 18.
