Program methodology involves a systems approach to planning. A management by objective system (PPBS System) is being developed for the project.

The program Is not a research program. Data has been gathered for planning purposes but the data is unreliable and-of little use.


A good Information system is needed in order to do future planning and to perform evaluation. Part of the planning effort involves a recommendation for an extensive management information system. Another weakness of the program Is the lack of systematic coordination between agencies that have some i nvo 1 vement in j uven i I e de Ii nquency.

Questlonaire dealing with attitudes toward criminal justice system administered to 626 seventh grade boys. Guttman Scales developed for nine attitude dimensions associated with the criminal justice system and the relationship of these attitudes to measures of delinquency potential was examined.

Associations were negative as hypothesized, but of low nagnitude. Relationship between delinquency potential and attitudes towards the <criminal justice system is very complex and many issues must be resolved before complete acceptance can be made of the generalization that potential delinquents hold more unfavo~able attitudes towards the criminal justice system than potential nondelinquents.

It was found that delinquents tend to score higher on anomia and Incipient Alienation than do non-delinquents. The MMPI delinquency scale appears to be a much more powerful indicator of del inquency than the Srole Scale for the index of Incipient Alienation.

Juvenile delinquency must be dealt with in three influential areas: the family and home; the school; and the community. Efforts to improve fami ly 1 ife include preparing young people for the responsibilities of marriage and parenthood, and immediate aid to famil ies in trouble. The school system must assume responsibility for detecting early symptoms of maladjustment in children, for ·helping pupils who need special handl ing, and for providing broad enough curriculum to satisfy those who do poorly i.n academic subjects. In the community, agencies that deal with youth must be expanded, personnel specially trained and adequate leisure activities provide wholesome outlE~ts for energies of youth.

Program evaluation will be conducted utilizing a three phase sequence. A portion of the first phase consisted of a series of management inventories to ascertain managerial styles, leadership styles, and work motivation of each trainee. The Crawford Slip Technique, a method of identifying training needs, provided Insight into attitudInal and value structure of the individual trainee. In practice, evaluation was a continuous process. As indicated, both staff and students share responsibility on a daily basis for curriculum content and schciduling.

Second phase was an evaluation by the trainees and the staff at the completion of the 12-week course, including both oral and written evaluation.

The third phase will be a written evaluation at two six-month intervals, subsequent to completion of the course. The majority of the trainees were satisfied with the content of the course in that it afforded the opportunity to explore a wide range of experiences, both ,of an academic and a vocational nature •

School records of I' Q and apti tude test, dem'ographlc data of fami Iy and the following test scores are collected at admission: Peabody Picture Vocabulary, Jesness, WISC Comprehension and Picture Arrangement, Rorschach: Thematic Apperception and Sentence Completion. After si~ months in program, the four latter tests repeated. Recidivism data are collected after departure from program.


Approximately 70 per cent of the girls had no further difficulty with the police. Although less than 10 per cent were able to return to publ ic school and to graduate from regular high school programs, a few have continued to junior college.

The average girl comes from a very large and very disturbed fami~y. The girl~ ego functioning is inadequate at time of admission but the~ could not, as a group, be described as neurotic or psychotic.

,v. EVALUATION OF PROGRAM (Strel",,:gths, \,<{eaknesses?):

Program provides strong positive feminine identification for most of the girls and tends [0 be ego building. For the very dependent and depressed c::hnd ~t can become a crutch and emancipation from it quite difficult. It does not benefit the completely psychopathic girL. Fewer black ghetto girls have derived permanent benefi t from 1t than was expected, though they usually do qui te weB y.i.'"Ji 1e they are in the program.

The primary strength is the ability to limit size of case load and the concentration within the Diagnostic-Treatment Unit on locating, coordinating, and in some cases cc;eating community resources.

I II. OESeR I PT J ON OF METHODOl.OGY:

The North Central Texas Council of Governments provided organizational structure for development of an office for '(outh Development Planning. Once the planning process was begun, the followin.g methodology \ .... as used: 1. Systems analysis of Juvenile Justice System to identify factors that affect number and type of individuals in the system; 2. Detention home inventory describing various aspects about the detainees, physical resources, personnel, and program; 3. Inventory of agencies concerned with services to juvenile delinquent and pre-delinquent; and 4. Identification of gaps in programs and services.


1. The p1anning region cannot be considered a uniform entity for planning. Rather, the 16 counties are made up of communities depend~"t and independent of political boundaries due to different economic and social profiles.

- 2. Eight of the 16 counties within the NCTCOG region dld not have probation services in some counties where it existed. Probation officers are underpaid and generally have unmanageable caseloads.

3. The need for a youth servicing agency outside the court ''system" to work with lIyouth who commit·juvenile misconduct offenses" or provide for services for psychological and psychiatric testing, counseling, job referral, other agency referral, and educational achievement testing.

4. S~patate and distinct juvenile detention facilities are prov~ded in on 1,/ t~ count i es·

5. There is a severe limitation of uniform, meaningful and up-to-date data concerning the pol ice,·· courts, jai 1s, probation and other corrections services within the NCTCOG Juveni1e Justice Plann~ng Area.

1. Provides a sound and cohesive framework which willf.oster effective corrections programs.

2. Encourages and promotes a united 6nderstanding and ~esolution of corrections problems ' 3. Addresses the immediate problems of inadequate facBlties for the detention of juveniles and alternatives to incarceration.

4. Addresses intermediate and long-range problems of recidivism prevention, multi-jurisdictional program development and integrated cor..munity-based rehabilitation programs.

The weakness was that there was not enough funds made aNa i 1 ab 1 e to perform more detailed program planning.

Each group of 12 youngsters were sent on three expeditions for a 'cotal of 50 days in remote, primitive camping areas. They were accompanied by three \'leI 1-qualifieq counselors familiar with ~earning theory and the principles of reality therapy which form the basis of the !enhancement program. Within the special t:!nvironment cl'eated by the necessity of surviving in the wilderness, each youngster is given an opportunity to measure bimself against his peers, and receive the support and encouragement necessary to developirlg nora adequate ways of responding to and percei~i~ himself in a social situation.

IV. CENTP~l FINDINGS OR RESULTS:

Results from analysis of last yea1rls program indicate that significant positive changes have occurred in both persOE'la.l and interpersonal spheres for a rnajori ty of paFticipants. Positive value of changes was not only associated with self, but also directed toward parents, school and peers. In addition the majority of parents experience attitude changes tOlNard their youngsters in a positive direction. These results have all been substantiated by both objective tests and one-year follow-up performance data.

Though this year's program has not yet been analyzed statistically, similar results anticipated.

Demonstratiu~n-¥X¥X---

Persons accused of certain groups of misdemeanors were channeled to the pl'oject with the consent of both attorneys, evaluated, and given the option of .ntering a treatment program or continuing in the criminal process. These persons were matched with comparative groups of accused offenders, aDd-monitored for recidivism over an average one-year period. A cross comparison was also e made.

•


Accused minor sexual offenders, non-violent property offenders, and persons involved in intra-family assaultive behavior could, in most cases, succ_essfully be diverted from the pre-trial state of cr+mina:l proceedings to mental heaith treatment programs within the community in lieu of prosecution, without any adverse affect on recidivism rates, and at cost no greater than that of prosecution. One hundred sixty excused exhibitionists, sodomists, drug law vi6Jators, husband, wife, and child-abusers, petty thieves and shoplifters, arsonists, receivers of stolen property, destroyers of property, and others were diverted, constituting two-thirds of all accused persons referred to, or screened by the project. Among the mental probiemswhich these accused persons presented were: schizophrenia, depression, passive" C!9gres9ve states, paranoi'd personal ites, hysterical conditions, sexual deviances. compulsive and other neuroses, sChizo-affective, organic, and i~mature typologies. Whereas t.vo-thirds of the diversion group got into treatment programsan:lnonewent to jail, of one hundred comparison group cases,fifteen were jailed, three were comnitted to a mental in'stitution, and thirty-eigot were released to their

The feasibility and desirability of pte-trail diversion to community mental health programs or certain types of accused offE'!I1ders are considered to have been demonstrated.

Appropriate social behavior and self-image often related. These girls need remedial work on interpersonal relating, development of self-control and positive attltud~s towards self. The guided group experience offers a lab for learning and growing. This period of transition is hardest on girls who lack support at home, have records of failure and few friends, resulting in passive or rebellious rejection of school setting and of family. Success experiences trigger motivation for their efforts. Learcing to respect others takes time. Positive communication is learned In groups.

The observation of parents, schools, and girls themselves is that these group meetings plus the intervention of a caring adult and the increased positive attention at school are productive in stabilizing during this period. Personal feelings expressed by members indicate improved self-concept, increased tnlst in school personnel and other adults and more confidence. Behavior change is noted--at home, school and group. Personal fears and problems are ventilated and solutions sought. Small groups are maintained on campus during the school year.

Study attempted to ~Kplore the use of instruction in personal grooming as a method for changing the selfconcepts of behaviorally disturbed adolescent females representing problems of social isolation or other inappropriate behaviors affecting school or home relationships. Some attempts also were made to assess if change in selfconcept was generalized to change in ~haYior.

Time: One year 1970-1971 Type:

II I. DESCRIPTION OF METHODOLOGY:

Planning Prevention Hode 1 .-------

Rehabi I i tat ion ----Curriculum ------Training ..,.--------Technical assistance

Eighty-one behaviorally disturbed teenaged girls were referred by three local soci~1 service agencies, the Juvenile Court, Welfare Department and tne Mental Health Clinic. Pre-and post-testing, using the California Test of Personality, was performed over an eight-week interval. Subjects then participated in an eight-week grooming course conducted by the owner of a local modeling school. A weekly Rating Checklist and follow-up questionnaires were developed to fUrther evaluate their progress. Awards were given those subjects who earned at least. 171 points for improvements as reflected on the Weekly Ratings Checklist.


As measured by the California Test of Personality, change in appearance changed self concept in the referrals from the Welfare Department and Mental Health Clinic but not necessarily for the referrals from the Juvenile Court. Follow-up questionnaires reported improved school behavior in thirteen per cent of the participants, improved home behavior in hventy-four per cent of the participants and less withdrawn and more sociable behavior in fourteen per cent. This approach appears to be most appropriate for Welfare and Clinic referrals. According to the California Test of Personality, these girls are differentiated from Court referrals by their lack of self confidence, withdrawal tendencies, and feeling of rejectIon. Court referrals tend to deny the prol:tlems and act more impUlsively than either of the other two groups. it is a 9i.1e:'5 thdl.. the teCl(;ning of probiem soiving techniques and soci a I ski II s may need to be incorporated for more effect i ve treatment of the non-adjudicated del inquenl:t 91 rls.

Ident, No. AACP-4

V. EVALUAT IOfl OF PROGRAM (Strengths, weaknesses?):

Lack of a control group is a definite shortcoming; however, the ~ifferential effects real ized by the three groups may somewhat compensate for this. Also, devising an appropriate form and getting information t'egarding behavioral change proved to be difficlJlt and unsatisfactory. Respondent would have like to have gotten professional assistance through LEAA when writting the proposal and evaluating the study.

Increase staff, provide facility assistance, etc. in the area of increasing community resource centers for delinquent children. The purpose is to use natural home and natural environment for treatment as opposed to the sterile institutional settings.


Early indications are that reduced commitment loads are becoming evident. More probation officers have been implemented in trhe rural areas; the volunteer programs are being implemented; foster homes are becoming more accessible; specialized foster homes are being established; new treatment programs are being attempted; and fewer and fewer children are being treated at the level of institutional training.

v. EVALUATION OF PROGMN (Strengths, weaknesses?):

Strength lies in natural resources of the community where the child lives. These are not available at thf::: training centers located miles away fran urban centers.

The greate~t weakness Jies in that there is not enough money available at the rural community level to progness even further with more programs" Smal I communities find it difficult to meet the federal match to introduce even more effective programs.

III. DESCR I PT ION OF METHODOLOGY:

Primary treatment tool is peer group activity augmented by services to individual girls such as crisis counseling, and family counseling. Crucial to the project is the mobilization of community resources) especially in education, employment training. shelter, health and social services.

Frame of reference is ecclectic, but generally behavioral. ReaTIty Therapy with its focus on the "here and now" and "tel J it like it is" and a Behavior rlodification Reward System are the two methods used in working with the girls. The project paper, "My Preciolls World l

' has proven an excellent therapeutic tool for the less verbal girls. The boutique makes clothes available to girls whose families are unwilling or unable to provide them with clothes.


In almost all cases of psychological measures, girls who remained active with the program showed improvement. An interesting result of this evaluation was the finding that girls active in Probation Plus tended to be initially more neurotic and anxious than the girls who became inactive.

A significantly lower rate of recidivism was found among Probation Plus girls when compared with their inactive counterparts. Also a significantly greater number of PP+P girls' state of delinquency either remained the same or reduced. School attendance rate was not spectacular, and remains a major source of tension with the girls. !n most cases, girls no longer active with PP+P either did not show the same rate of 5uc~es~ or wars~r~d d~~ing the prcjcc~ year .

V. EVALUATION o.F PROGRAM (Strengths, weaknesses?):

e Staff should be increased to service a larger number of girls. Group meetings . and activities should occur more frequently than once a week. There should be greater

Involvement of family in girl's rehabilitation and treatment. In all cases whether, evaluated by the girls, their parents or professional workers, PP+P and its staff received a standing ovation.

Weaknesses uncovered in the evaluation were changes in group leadership in the early months of the project which caused tensions and insecurity among two 6f the groups. Also, behavior modification techniques should be refined and staff needs to streamline this aspect of the program.

Innovative curriculum was developed through a series of meetings with a wide variety of juvenide justice groups in responses to a questionnaire from state and national criminal justice organizations. Nineteen representative5were recruited nationally to attend the 12-week program. An interdiscipl inary faculty of 18 persons participated in an open, seminar type of educational' e)<perience with the students being actively involved in decision-making around curriculum need and faculty choice.

Program evaluation will be conducted utilizing a three phase sequence. A portion of the first phase consisted of a series of management inventories to ascertain managerial styles, leadership styles, and work motivation of each trainee. The Crawford Slip Technique, a method of identifying training needs, provided Insight into attitudinal and value structure of the individual trainee. In practice, evaluation was a continuous process. As indicated, both staff and students share responsibility on a daily basis for curriculum content and scheduling.

Second phase was an evaluation by the trainees and the staff at the completion of the 12-.,.,eek course, including both oral and written evaluation.

The third phase will be a written evaluation at two six-month Intervals, subsequent to completion of the course. The majority of the trainees were satisfied with the content of the course in that it afforded the opportunity to explore a wide range of experiences, both of an academic and a vocational nature.

After six months in program, the four latter tests repeated. Recidivism data are collected after departure from program.


Approximateiy 70 per cent of the girls had no further difficuity with the police. Although less than 10 per Gent were able to return to public school and to 'graduate from regular high school programs. a few have continued to junior college.

The average girl comes from a very large and very disturbed family. The girl's ego functioning is inadequate at time of admission but theyl could not, as a group, be described as neurotic or psychotic.


Program provides strong positive feminine identification for most of the girls ~nd tends to be ego building. For the very dependent and depressed child it can become a crutch and emancipation from it quite difficult. It does not benefit the compietely psychopathic girl. Fewer black ghetto girls have derived permanent benefit from it than was expected, though they usually do quite well while they are in the program. Though the staff-pupil ratio may appear high, the cost per child rehabilitated is quite }ow.

Crisis Intervention Unit: One supervisor and five deputy juvenile office;s are assigned to cases of young offenders for immediate response, in effort to keep them out of court system and to maximize community resources.

Institutional Unit: Three special officers ar'e assigned a5 liaison with local institutions to which delinquents are committed for purpose of maintaining contact with family and follow-up services.

In general, the combination of mental health and intensive case work services provided by the Diagnostic-Treatment Unit, with emphasis on community orientation, has proved successful in preventing the necessity for institutional placement and over 80 per cent of the high risk delinquency cases served during the past two years. results of Institutional Unit and Crisis Intervention Unit Services in terms of recidivism and long-term follow-up are not currently available.

The primary strength is the ability to limit size of case load and the concentration within the Diagnostic-Treatment Unit o~ locating, coordinating, and in some cases creating community resources.

The primary weakness is inherent in the system--operating within the structure and under the supervision of the court, planning and carrying out treatment is frequently not as flexible as might be desirable.

Purposes of the program were to create a viable organization structure, develop a process for Comprehensive Juvenile Justice Planning, and develop a comprehensive plan for the prevention and control of juvenile del inquency in the North and Central Texas 16 county region.

Planning ------Prevention Model

~~--~--------Rehabi I itation -----Curriculum -------Training -------Techn i ca I ass i ~~ance

I II. DESCRIPTION OF METHODOLOGY~

The North Central Texas Cotlncil of Governments provided organizational structure for development of an office for Youth Development Planning. Once the planning process was begun, the followi~g methodology was used: 1. Systems analysis of Juvenile Justice System to identify factors that affect number and type of individuals in the system; 2. Detention home inventory describing various aspects about the detainees, physical resources, personnel, and program; 3. Inventory of agencies concerned with services to juvenile delinquent and pre-delinquent; and 4. Identification of gaps in programs and services~

, IV. CENTRAL FINDINGS OR RESULTS:

1. The planning region cannot be considered a uniform entity for planning. Rather, the 16 counties are made up of communities dependent and independent of political boundaries due to different economic and social profiles.

- 2. Eight of the 16 counties within the NCTCOG region did not have probation services in some counties w~ere it existed. Probation officers are underpaid and generally have unmanageable caseloads.

3. The need for a youth servicing agency outside the courtlsystem" to work with lIyouth who commit-juvenile misconduct offensesll or provide for services for psychological and psychiatric testing, counseling, job referral, other agency referral, and educational achievement testing.

4. S~parate and distinct juvenile detention facilities are provided in onl y two coun ties·

5. There is a severe limitation of uniform, meaningful and up-to-date data concerning the pol ice,;' courts, jails, probation and other corrections services within the NCTCOG Juvenile Justice Planning Area.

Ident. No. HEW-Jo-66

V. EVALUATIOH OF PROGRAM (Strengths, weaknesses?):

1. Provides a sound and cohesive framework which will foster effective corrections programs.

2. Encourages and promotes a united tInderstanding and resolution of corrections problems-

3. Addresses the immediate problems of inadequate facilities for the detention of Juven i les and al ter-natives to incarceration.

L •• Addrl?sses intermediate and long-range problems of recidivism prevention, multi-jurisdlctional program development and integrated community-based rehabil itation programs.

The weakness was that there was not enough funds made available to perform more detailed program planning.

Each group of J2 youngsters were sent on three expeditions for a total of 50 days in remote, primitive camping areas. They were accompanied by three wellqualified counselors familiar with learning theory and the principles of reality therapy which form the basis of the enhancement program. Within the special environment created by the necessity of surviving in the wilderness, each youngster is given an opportunity to measure himself against his peers, and receive the support and encouragement necessary to developing ITem adequate ways of responding to and perceiviry himself in a social situation.


Resu.1ts from analysis of last year's program indicate that significant positive change.s have occurred in both personal and interpersonal spheres for a major! ty of paFticipants. Positive value of changes was not only associated with self, but also directed toward parents, school and peers. In addition the majority of parents experience attitude changes t~/ard their youngsters in a positive direction. These results have all been substantiated by both objective tests and one-year follow-up perfonnance data.

Though this yearls program has not yet been analyzed statistically, similar results anticipated.

Passport's several unique characteristics make it particularly successful: (1) It Is short-term and intensive; (2) It combines the enjoyment of camping and traveling to 1nteresting parts of the country along with the learning experience apart from the normal stresses of home and parents; (3) I t not only deals with the youngsters but provides an opportunity for parents to discuss their children and receive the services of a professional staff and understanding and evaluating their relationship vii thin patterns of responding to the youngsters.

Persons accused of certain groups of misdemeanors were channel~d to the project with the consent of both attorneys, evaluated, and given the option of ~ntering a treatment program or continuing in the criminal process. These persons \ .... ere matched wi th comparat I ve groups of accused offenders, aod -mbn! tored for recidivism over an average one-year period. A cross comparison was also made.


Accused minor sexual offenders, non-violent property offenders, and persons involved in intra-family assaultive behavior could, in most cases, succ_essfully be diverted from the pre-trial state of cr"rminal proceedings to mental health treatment programs within the community in lieu of prosecution, without any adverse affect on recidivism rates, and at cost no greater than that of prosecution. One hundred sixty excused exhibitionists, sodomists, drug law violators, husband, wife, and child-abusers, petty thieves and shoplifters, arsonists, receivers of stolen property, destroyers of property, and others were diverted, constituting two-thirds of all accused persons referred to, or screened by the project. Among the mental problems which these accused persons presented were: schizophrenia, depression, passive" C!9gres9ve states, paranoid personal ites, hysterical condi.~iol'ls, sexuai deviance:s, compUlsive and other neuroses, schiZo-affective, organic, and immature typologies. Whereas two-thirds of the diversion group got Into treatment programs artlnonewent to jail, of one hundred comparison group cases,fifteen were jailed, three were conmitted to a mental institution, and thirty-eight were rel'eased to their communitJes without any treatment or other correction program.

The feasibility and desirability of, pre-trail diversion to community mental health programs or certain types of accused offenders are considered to have been demonstrated.

Eighty-one behaviorally disturbed teenaged girls were referred by three local social sorvlce agencies, the Juvenile Court, Welfare Department and the Mental Health Clinic. Pre-and post-testing, using the California Test of Personality, was perf()rmed over an eight-week interval. Subjects then participated in an eight-week grooming course conducted by the owner of a local modeling school. A \4eckly Rating Checklist and follow-up questionnaires were developed to furt(1er evc:l1uatc their progress. Awards were given those subjects who earned at least 171 points for improvements as reflected on the Weekly Ratings Checklist.


As measured by the Cal ifornia Test of Personality, change in appearance changed self concept Tn the referrals from the Welfare Department and Mental Health Clinic but not necessarily for the referrals fran the Juveni Ie Court. Follow-up questionnair~s reported improved school behavior in thirteen per cent of the participants, improved home behavior in twenty-four per cent of the participants and less withdrDwn and more sociable behavior in fourteen per cent.

v. EVALUATIO~~ OF PROGRAH (Strengths. weaknesses?):

Lack of a control . group is a definite shortcoming; however, the differential effects realized by the three groups may somewhat compensate for this. Also, devising an appropriate form and getting Information regarding behavioral change proved to be difficult and unsatisfactory. Respondent would have like to have gotten professional assistance through LEl'\.A when writting the P\"oposal and evaluating the study.

Primary treatment tool is peer group activity augmented by services to individual girls such as crisis counseling, and family counseling. Crucial to the project is the mobilization of community resources, especially in education, employment training, shelter, health and social services.

Frame of reference is ecclectic, but generally behavioral. ReaTIty Therapy with its focus on the IIhere and now" and "tell it like it is" and a Behavior Nodificatlon Reward System are the two methods used in working with the girls. The project paper, liMy Precious World" has proven an excellent therapeutic tool for the less verbal girls. The boutique makes clothes available to girls whose families are unwillIng or unable to provide them with clothes.


In almost all cases of psychological measures, girls ... ,ho remained active with the program showed improvement. An interesting result of this evaluation was the finding that girls active in Probation Plus tended to be initially more neurotic and anxious then the girls who became inactive.

A ~ignificantly lower rate of recidivism was found among Probation Plus girls when compared with their inactive counterparts. Also a sIgnificantly greater number of PP+P girls' state of delinquency either remained the same or reduced. School attendance rate was not spectacul;', and remains a major source of tension with the girls. In most cases, girls no longer active with PP+P either did not show 1:h~ Si'\rne rate of success or ~'!0r<:ened during the rrojcct yccr.
