Custody may only be used as a last resort, as it jeopardises the development and reintegration of children. Tdh works in collaboration with professionals in criminal justice, especially with the police, prosecutors and judges to make sure that the necessary legislation is implemented and to improve the application of non-judicial procedures and alternatives to imprisonment. In this way children and adolescents in conflict with the law, who have often committed only minor offences, can benefit from a justice that is adapted to them. They have access to non-custodial measures, procedures for the non-violent resolution of conflicts and to reintegration.
