Therefore, the purpose of this research is to identify the challenges and opportunities of intervention of social workers in the process of juvenile proceedings from the point of view of judges in order to provide plans to improve the position of social workers. Due to the fact that in Iran's judicial system, judges are responsible for the implementation of the law and the non-implementation of the law is to a large extent directed at them, therefore, in this article, the challenges and opportunities of social workers' intervention in juvenile proceedings were questioned.

The main axis of the answers are concepts such as professional weakness, system inefficiency as challenges, restorative interventions and facilitating exit from proceedings as an opportunity for the presence and intervention of social workers.
