Essex Youth Offending Service (YOS)

The youth offending service can help you if you’re involved in offending. They want to support you and to reduce youth crime.

They can work with you until the age of 18. If they've worked with you in the past, they can continue to provide you with advice and support beyond 18.

They're made up of police, the national probation service, health authorities and other local organisations. They work with people who support you, like the Leaving and After Care team or Children in Care Service.
