[QUOTE="HereWeGoAgain, post: 30259, member: 3485"] <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: CAmom</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Hi Mikey, I'm in CA (duh!--CAMom...), but, if you're interested in sending your son this far away, I think the system my son is involved with is wonderful! I understand CA has really tried very hard to provide numerous excellent programs for kids at risk in what seems a very sincere effort to keep them out of jail. My husband and I are utterly amazed at the services being provided which include drug/alcohol counseling, individual and group counseling, all with a psychiatrist and/or psychologist; and training in life skills, social development, personal documentation, work and study skills, coummunity resources, money management, tasks of daily living, etc. Now, if only my son would take advantage of all this... You can send me a private message, if you like, and I can give you the name of this service. </div></div>Just as an aside, and if this verges too much into the political please forgive me, I have increasingly thought and said that this sort of approach rather than a strictly criminal law-enforcement one, IOW proactive rather than reactive, will result in cost savings and lower crime and prison populations. Sorta like the broken-windows philosophy that did so much good for New York. OK, off of my soap box and back to the topic at hand... [/QUOTE]
