This study focuses on program integrity in community-based facilities as it was affected by relationships with the regulatory, funding, and referral organizations. The two most recent models for juvenile corrections are the rehabilitation and reintegration models. The components of the rehabilitation model are diagnosis and classification, formalized counseling or therapy, and formalized education. The reintegration model emphasizes normality, community involvement, and resocialization. Legislators and social scientists advocate the reintegration model for juvenile corrections, but according to Bockoven (1963), social workers employed by social services agencies are oriented toward the rehabilitation model in dealing with clients. Since funding for the juvenile community-based facilities was authorized under Title XX, it was administered by the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services, whose orientation is toward the rehabilitation model. Because the funding criteria required the activities of the rehabilitation model, the community-based facilities found it difficult to sustain reintegration activities, even though their programs were founded on this design. This study demonstrates that funding criteria and funding agency ideology should be examined in any evaluation of the effectiveness of the reintegration model applied in community-based programs. Seventy-nine references are listed, and materials relevant to the study are appended.
