The Human Rights Focus aims to empower BAME young ex-offenders through developing their skills and providing opportunities. They involve youth in decision making and discuss issues like overrepresentation of minorities in the criminal justice system. Activities have included discussions at a young offenders institution to promote hope, and events on topics like identity, citizenship, and knife crime. Participants create campaigns to address local challenges in their communities. The organization learns from other countries and focuses on empowering youth by and for youth through an approach of mutual support and second chances.
