The 2026 edition of our guide, Children and young people in conflict with the law: policy, practice and legislation, has been launched this week at the National Youth Justice Conference.

This year we’ve brought you two brand new sections covering Brain Development and Neurodiversity, and Children in conflict with the law and Data.

We’ve also updated the cover art for every section this year. Thank you to the children and young people with justice experience whose artwork is featured on the new cover pages.
