This report presents the findings from the Youth Court research project. The research was an exploratory project aimed at providing insights into the experiences and views of young people going through the court, their families/whānau, and the experiences of Youth Court professionals.
The research was conducted in the Waitakere, New Plymouth, Christchurch and Porirua Youth Courts. Including young people and families in the research allowed their experiences to be heard and added valuable firsthand insights into the variety of court users’ perceptions and experiences.
