Children Used by Adults to Commit Crime: Diversion Programme ManualThis manual contains an intervention designed for a specific group of child offenders that is meant to supplement existing diversion programmes. The research undertaken with children has shown that adults often use a reward system to elicit the participation of children in crime. This intervention has been designed to provide alternatives and behavioral means for children to avoid them succumbing to such influences and committing offences. This diversion intervention represents a valuable effort to expand the programmatic responses to offending that are available in South African, in order for specific groups of children in trouble with the law.https://dullahomarinstitute.org.za/childrens-rights/archives/Research/CUBAC/CUBAC%20Publications/Children%20Used%20by%20Adults%20to%20Commit%20Crime%20-%20Diversion%20Programme%20Manual.pdf/viewhttps://dullahomarinstitute.org.za/childrens-rights/archives/Research/CUBAC/CUBAC%20Publications/Children%20Used%20by%20Adults%20to%20Commit%20Crime%20-%20Diversion%20Programme%20Manual.pdf/@@download/image/leadimage.jpeg
