Bail Support

Bail support services are designed for young people, typically aged 10 to 17, who have had involvement in the youth justice system. These services cater to those who have committed or are alleged to have committed offenses, particularly those who:

• Display ongoing and entrenched offending behaviour, often stemming from complex and extreme needs as well as significant trauma backgrounds.
• Are living in, or upon release from detention will be living in, the South Burnett area.
• Are remanded in custody, or at risk of being remanded, partly due to a lack of positive support in their community, and require assistance to prepare for reintegration into the community.
• Are exiting detention and are at risk of reoffending and returning to detention.
• Are appearing in court and are at risk of being remanded in custody.
• Have been granted bail but need support to meet the conditions of bail, without which they risk being detained.
• Are in the early stages of offending or are siblings of known offenders, showing signs of offending behaviour.
