Annotation

A DISCUSSION OF THE REINTEGRATION OF JUVENILES INTO THE SCHOOL SYSTEMS OF DENVER, (CO), AND ST LOUIS, (MO), WITH RECOMMENDATION IN TERMS OF NORMATIVE SYSTEM OBJECTIVES SUCH AS TRANSFER AND INSTITUTIONALIZATION.

Abstract

A RECOMMENDATION IS MADE TO MITIGATE THIS PROBLEM OF REINTEGRATION IN FUTURE PROJECTS NOT BY ATTEMPTING TO REFORM THE PUBLIC SCHOOL BUT BY PROVIDING PROJECT CLIENTS WITH 'VOLUNTEER-ADVOCATES' WHO CAN SUPPORT AND REPRESENT THEM VIS-A-VIS AUTHORITY, HELP THEM CONTINUE THE PROGRESS MADE UNDER THE SPECIALIZED TREATMENT PROGRAMS, AND GENERALLY EASE THEIR RETURN TO THE COMMUNITY AND TO THE TRADITIONAL SCHOOL SYSTEM.
