RT Book T1 Grappling with the complexity of Early and Effective Intervention (EEI): benevolent intentions, negative consequences in youth justice implications for Scotland T2 A Scottish Justice Fellowship Briefing Paper A1 Gillon, Fern LA English PP Glasgow PB The Scottish Centre for Crime & Justice UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1832587207 AB This paper aims to illustrate a number of concerns regarding early intervention within the sphere of youth justice. While we must endeavor to support children and young people involved in low level offending before concerns escalate, this paper will highlight the importance of apportioning intervention cautiously due to the complexities which can arise when intervening early. In particular, the potential to increase the number of young people coming into contact with the youth justice system, which may have negative consequences. The complexity of this reality is something we cannot avoid. Rather we need to work with it in order to minimise the potential pitfalls it might generate.
