|
|
|

||
Day treatment program for middle school age emotionally disturbed, learning disabled children involved in the Juvinile Justice System or at risk for Juvenile delinquent behavior. This program will provide an array of services including academic tutoring, behavior modification, effective parneting training, improved socialization skills, pre-vocational planning, mental health and/or substance abuse treatment, teenage pregnancy prevention, self-esteem programming, value clarification. The program is an early intervention and prevention program. Participants successfully completing will be diverted from juvenile detention out of home placement and/or incarceration and achieve academically. Thus, Government funds will not need to be directed on a long-term basis on these youth. |
