NIACRO believes child offending can be reduced through diverting children and young people to services which help them to make positive changes in their lives. Our services are open to young people in different areas of Northern Ireland, of different age groups and with different needs. NIACRO aims to move children and young people out of the criminal justice system, or better still help them not get into it in the first place. A list of our current projects are shown below:
| Child and Parent Support (Caps) | Independent Representation Scheme |
 |  |
| The Child and Parent Support programme provides intensive support services to families whose children (aged 8 to 13) are at risk of taking part in anti-social/offending behaviour. | The Independent Representation scheme represents the views and concerns of young people in Lakewood Secure Care Centre, Bangor. |

| Independent Visitor Scheme | Youth Employability |
 |  |
| The Independent Visitor Scheme offers a befriending and independent support service to young people who are "looked after" by the Trusts and have little or no contact with a parent or parental figure. | The Youth Employability programme supports young people aged between 15 and 18 years old, who are involved with the youth justice system, to undertake education, training or employment. |
