Youth Justice and Interventions (graduate certificate)

Program Available at Pickering Learning Site Campus

Program Overview

The majority of youth will develop naturally into law-abiding citizens. For some, however, behavioral concerns may arise, which continue into adulthood. Some risk factors impact pro-social development and may result in the youth committing or repeating the commission of criminal offenses. An understanding of the issues, as well as prevention and intervention strategies, can assist in reshaping this behaviour. Determined, passionate and patient, youth justice and interventions graduates combine their education and experience to make a positive impact on the lives of today’s youth.
