Minimum Age of Criminal Responsibility - Alternative Diversion Model Discussion Paper – March 2024

YACSA has an extensive history of advocacy in youth justice, including coordinating the campaign to close the Magill Training Centre in 2009 and hosting the ‘Beyond Magill’ Policy Thinktank in 2010. In recent years, YACSA has continued to uphold an evidence- and human rights-based approach to supporting children and young people engaged in the youth justice system. We have facilitated member forums, made many submissions, and provided State Government agencies and members of Parliament with direct advice concerning youth justice reform.
