In Belfast, the group met with Northern Ireland Youth Action to learn about their impactful initiatives aimed at bridging the enduring divide between Catholic and Protestant communities. Students also had the honor of visiting the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), where they toured the facility and memorial grounds.<\/p>\n<p>A highlight of the Belfast experience was a visit to Crumlin Road Gaol, a historic prison that opened in 1846 and remained in operation until 1996. Often referred to as \u201cEurope\u2019s Alcatraz,\u201d the gaol housed a wide range of individuals, including political prisoners and even children as young as ten. The group also participated in a guided tour of the Peace Wall, which underscored the ongoing importance of restorative justice efforts in rebuilding trust and repairing harm across divided communities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-jqd63gd-91b378f85906c7e257c8f9c28d8a5adb\">\n.avia-image-container.av-jqd63gd-91b378f85906c7e257c8f9c28d8a5adb img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-jqd63gd-91b378f85906c7e257c8f9c28d8a5adb .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-jqd63gd-91b378f85906c7e257c8f9c28d8a5adb av-styling-no-styling avia-align-  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building.webp 1200w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-300x154.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-1030x529.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-768x394.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-705x362.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building.jpg\" height=\"616\" width=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-1030x529.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-768x394.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/04\/CCJ-Students-at-the-Criminial-Courts-building-705x362.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" class=\"wp-image-104387 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-104387 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"CCJ Students at the Criminal Courts of Justice building\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mohekwuw-8caec384d11e772202383937873c64ed\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mohekwuw-8caec384d11e772202383937873c64ed .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mohekwuw-8caec384d11e772202383937873c64ed '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>In Dublin, students met with youth service providers working on the front lines with at-risk youth\u2014addressing issues such as drug use, truancy, gang involvement, and family instability.
