Summary/Abstract: In order to prevent violations, consequently juvenile crime in general, we are trying to find different models and approaches to the application of alternative sanctions in case of minors. The article presents the possibilities of introducing alternative sanctions to minors who have committed offenses, in order to achieve the purpose of these sanctions and that is that minors do not make future violations or criminal offenses. The system presented is the Netherlands system that started with the implementation in 1981 in Rotterdam as a system that was to deal with the problem of vandalism of minors. In the paper is also presented the pilot program implemented in Zagreb and Velika Gorica in order to improve system through its implementation from 2012 to 2016.
