Minister McEntee launches new research which offers hope for children caught up in crime networks
Research provides new insights into the way that networks attract and confine children
1,000 children across the state are estimated to be engaged in or at risk of engagement with a criminal network
The research learning is now being applied in two pilot projects, to commence shortly
This morning, Minister for Justice, Helen McEntee TD, is launching new ground-breaking research published by the University of Limerick and announcing the commencement of a newly designed community intervention programme based on that research. These intervention programmes will offer new hope and opportunities for children caught up in serious and prolific crime.
