- Summary:
-
This paper presents the key findings of the 'Youth Justice: Criminal Trajectories Research Project", a project that focused on recidivism among young offenders. It makes a significant contribution to the evidence base as it provides the offending trajectories of 1,503 young offenders over a seven year period. The data show that the vast majority of young offenders on supervised orders progress to the adult correction systems. Analysis of risk factors finds that 91 per cent of those who have been subject to a care and protection order progressed to the adult system. The results of the project confirm that multiple factors amplify the risk of recidivism and highlight the importance of coordinated whole-of-government responses to youth offending.
