Assessment forms: young people in the youth justice system
Use Asset, Onset, SIFA and SQIFA to assess young offenders and other young people in the youth justice system.
Anyone working in the youth justice system should use the forms in this collection to assess young people to help them stop offending.
Use:
- Asset to assess the risks and needs of a young person when they first come into contact with a youth offending team
- SQIFA and SIFA to assess a young person’s mental-health needs, depending on the result of the Asset assessment
- Onset to assess young people deemed to be at particular risk of offending for the first time.
