Presentation: Reducing Reoffending in Arrested Children (Guardian)
The aim of this research was to investigate whether a ‘Guardian Briefing’ can reduce the likelihood of a child previously taken into custody being rearrested. Specifically, we tested the impact of an in-custody video and survey, and post-custody communication, on the guardians of children that are taken into custody.
