YouthLink Scotland

Empowering young people who may be at risk of youth violence

YouthLink Scotland

KBL is a collaboration between the Scottish Government and YouthLink Scotland—the national agency for youth work in Scotland. We’re a national initiative, delivered at local level with support available to any local authority in Scotland. We seek to understand and take action on the causes and consequences of youth violence in Scottish communities. We bring people, knowledge and practice together to learn about what drives violence amongst young people, sharing information and resources.
