Government will engage with Indigenous leaders and communities to identify proactive programs, such as the Outland Youth Employment Program, that could provide restorative justice opportunities for youth. Doing so will ensure that young offenders are held accountable while enabling them to receive an education, work experience, and learn critical life skills.

A cross-government hub of expertise will be developed, to direct youth in trouble with the law to appropriate community programs and services, including mental health and addictions. The objective is to ensure that the justice system is a last resort for youth in care.
