Andi Brierley crafts a new framework that facilitates pathways to positive outcomes. And offers a rich and insightful account of the key components of effective relationship-based practice.'-- Dr Sean Creaney, Edge Hill University, UK; 'This book sits at the intersection between personal lived experience and professional practice and ... makes it a hugely valuable contribution to the discourse ... Brierley not only contextually articulates his experiences but seeks to provide a new framework through which youth justice can effect change.'-- Lisa Cherry (From the Foreword).
