The IAP model embodies a multifaceted and integrated approach to community re-entry that calls for a high degree of control over released juveniles coupled with enhanced service delivery focusing on widely recognized risk and protective factors. The model is grounded in a set of theoretical and practical assumptions about the need to specify the range of factors that generate and are highly correlated with severe, high-rate delinquency. This identification process suggests promising categories of intervention that can readily be matched with these factors. Consequently, the model provides a framework of differential responses designed to meet the problems and needs of individual juvenile offenders at the deep end of the youth correctional system. The model is being tested in demonstration sites in Colorado, Nevada, New Jersey, and Virginia. If determined to be effective, the model will probably be implemented in additional States and will become part of the larger continuum of responses within their juvenile justice systems.
