The Abu Dhabi Police Juveniles Care Center recently launched the “Good Role Model” initiative aimed at instilling moral and educational values in juveniles. The initiative is being implemented by the Center through hosting some of the leading figures that have several influential and effective contributions in the UAE’s social life.

Furthermore, and within the activities of the holy month of Ramadan, the Center also organized the Ramadan Football Tournament at its headquarters in Abu Dhabi. The tournament included an exceptional and comprehensive set of programs and was attended by a large number of officials, staff members, and juveniles’ parents. In addition to the sports events, the Ramadan program also included activities aimed at rehabilitating juveniles psychologically and socially.
