This manual contains two prevention programmes focusing on children used by adults or older children to commit crime. One programme is aimed at children within an educational or residential setting and seeks to help them identify situations and factors that place them at risk of adult influence to commit crime, while providing alternative behavioural methods to avoid such situations. The second programme is aimed at parents, caregivers and communities, in order to raise awareness of the phenomenon of children used by adults to commit crime and encourage the appropriate treatment of children.
