Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the involvement of juvenile probation officers in the process of rehabilitating and reintegrating young offenders within the legal framework of Pakistan. In this article, the author explores the importance of adopting a comprehensive strategy towards juvenile justice that emphasizes rehabilitation more than punitive actions. The analysis focuses on the difficulties encountered by probation officers who work with young offenders, the approaches used to facilitate successful rehabilitation, and the influence of their endeavors on decreasing reoffending rates. Additionally, the research highlights the significance of active participation from the community and cooperation among different individuals and groups with vested interests in reintegrating young offenders back into society effectively.
