Welcome to the youth-oriented section of the Youth Justice Committee website. We’ve collected some resources here that we hope will be useful for you.

If "knowledge is power," here you can see your own powers in the areas of justice, the court system, and justice committees.

If you decide you need help with anything you find out about on this site, you can contact your local justice committee agency and they can help or point you in the right direction.

If you’ve got any ideas or comments on for this section or want to share part of your experience with a justice committee process with other people, contact us. (Your privacy and identity will be protected!)

Stay safe, and know your rights!
