This article discusses the findings of a National Council on Crime and Delinquency (NCCD) project that evaluated postadjudication nonresidential intensive supervision programs.
Abstract
The NCCD project was designed to: (1) identify and assess effective operational intensive supervision programs; (2) provide the capability to selected localities to implement effective intensive supervision programs for serious offenders through intensive training and technical assistance; (3) disseminate effective postadjudicatory nonresidential intensive supervision program designs for supervision of serious juvenile offenders. In addition to discussing project findings, the article describes the juvenile intensive supervision program model NCCD is developing. Tables, references
