Juvenile delinquency is a growing issue, a big part of our population is children and hence
our country’s future is at risk. Children mental health is not yet developed, they perform
unlawful acts due to their surrounding environmental factors which affects their mind.
Though there are rules and regulations that have been approved globally for amendment or
reformation of the juvenile offenders, these rules are not maintained in our country properly
due to lack of logistic support and lack of proper administration and other co-operatives.
People are still not aware of the causation and impacts of juvenile delinquency, many are not
aware of the reformation acts, they believe children should be punished for their wrongdoings
and they often tend to strongly agree to these misconceptions. The project focuses more on
the rehabilitation issue by providing an ‘island of reforming’ programs where the children are
accommodated within a moat which gives them a sense of security from the rest of the world
without confining them in cells but security has also been ensured to prevent any
wrongdoings or accidents within the center. This center also introduces the programs of
creating awareness between people so that people can take care of any possibilities of
causation of juvenile acts of their children, hence this center would not only help to reform
the juvenile offenders but will also help to prevent future possibility of juvenile delinquency
