The juvenile justice system is a legal framework designed to handle minors who have committed offenses. It focuses on rehabilitation rather than punishment, recognizing that young people are still developing and can change their behavior. The system often includes various interventions, such as counseling, community service, and educational programs. In contrast to the adult justice system, the juvenile justice system aims to protect the privacy of young offenders and provide them with support. Courts may use different procedures and terminology, and the goal is to reintegrate youth into society as responsible individuals, reducing the likelihood of reoffending.
