Youth Justice

August 27, 2015

Most Aboriginal young people in Dubbo do not end up in the juvenile justice system. What makes the difference for them compared to those that do enter the system?

And therefore, what can be done by philanthropy?

Dubbo Conversations is a summary of conversations and observations in Dubbo to inform support by Dusseldorp Forum and Vincent Fairfax Family Foundation (VFFF). The result of this report has been the creation of the Children and Prison Program.
