Download or read book Intervention Strategies for Chronic Juvenile Offenders written by Peter W. Greenwood and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1986-11-18 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers in this collection were commissioned as part of a Rand research study to determine whether rehabilitation is really dead, or possibly just hibernating. A companion book, "One More Chance : The Pursuit of Promising Intervention Strategies for Chronic Juvenile Offenders" (Greenwood & Zimring, 1985) presents the principle findings of the study, which old out promise that the quality of rehabilitation programs can and should be improved. These papers describe the analysis used to arrive at that conclusion. Their common thread is an attempt to explain why interest in, and knowledge about, rehabilitation of serious juvenile offenders is in its current state of confusion and disarray.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes three innovative juvenile rehabilitation programs. The author bases his comments on his observations of the programs, interviews with staff and juveniles, and comparisons of the programs' treatment methods with successful techniques reported in the evaluation literature. The programs are (1) VisionQuest, the Tucson-based program that works with youths in wilderness camps, on wagon trains, or in other high impact/adventure formats; (2) Paint Creek Youth Center, a small, experimental, staff-secure program in southern Ohio, which appears to have put together a fairly unique combination of more conventional treatment methods that together create a strong program; and (3) Key Tracking in Massachusetts, which has developed and institutionalized some of the best techniques for working with juveniles in the community.

Download or read book One More Chance written by Peter W. Greenwood and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the findings and recommendations of a study on effective interventions for chronic juvenile offenders. Five groups of factors are predictive of future offending: family factors such as poor parenting skills and parental pathology or criminality; biological deficits such as birth defects or learning disability; parental attitudes, supervision, and affection; antisocial and acting-out behaviours; and delinquency history. Using these predictor variables, chronic offenders can be identified at about age 13 with about 50-percent accuracy. Promising programs for chronic delinquents provide opportunities for success and improved self-esteem, facilitate familial bonds, provide timely and accurate feedback on behaviours, and reduce or eliminate negative role models and peer influences. Programs based on isolation in remote wilderness settings and physical challenges show some promise. Preventive programming for high-risk youths who have not yet committed criminal acts must take place within the educational system or community, and promising programs include early education programs such as Headstart, parent training, and some educational programs. The economic benefits intervention to both offenders and society of early are emphasized.
