A study conducted by the Prosecutor General’s Office has shown that while comprehensive legal frameworks have been established to implement a system for keeping children away from crime, institutions require financial empowerment. These research papers were released during a conference on the juvenile justice system organized by the Prosecutor General’s Office. According to the study, current efforts to keep children away from crime need to be significantly increased. This includes conducting awareness programs targeting children at high risk of exposure to criminal environments and their families. However, the study notes that such programs are not being conducted to the required extent due to financial constraints faced by implementing agencies. The study also states that while there is a comprehensive legal framework for implementing the system, financial empowerment of institutions is necessary to achieve results.

According to the PG Office’s study, to keep children away from crime, counseling, therapy, and mental health support must be provided to children sustainably. It also recommends establishing a robust system for monitoring families and children, as well as a strong communication system among all agencies involved in crime prevention. Furthermore, it suggests establishing a robust communication system between schools, law enforcement agencies, and social and health service providers. The study’s recommendations include developing policies to eradicate poverty and establish economic equality. These policies should ensure that every family has access to housing, food, health, and education.

Additionally, it advises on providing special counseling, education, and skill development, as well as sustainable apprenticeship programs, aimed at reintegrating children into society rather than punishing them. Various institutions involved in implementing the juvenile justice system have compiled studies related to this system. These studies,. These studies, which have now been made public, outline the issues within the juvenile justice system and their solutions.
