Abstract

[Extract] Youth crime in Australia has been the subject of sensationalist media coverage and growing community concern, particularly in north Queensland.

We wanted to understand the experiences of young people in north Queensland who were involved in the juvenile justice system, or at imminent risk of becoming so, through their own eyes, and use the findings to improve local services.
