Webinar: Breaking the Cycle
Youth justice in Australia is never far from front-page news. Amid rising calls for reform that would help young people find positive pathways away from offending, we zoomed out, and asked: how do young people find themselves swept up in the criminal justice system?
Breaking the Cycle was a free, interactive webinar that examined the complex web of factors that crystallise offending behaviour – covering disadvantage and trauma; negative social influences; neurology and impulsivity; institutionalisation; and the split moment in time where we’re all capable of making the wrong decision. It was attended by nearly 70 people on Tuesday, 7 March 2023. Watch the webinar highlights, or keep scrolling to see the full recorded session.
