Abstract

Youth Alliance is a non-profit agency located in Hollister California. The GANAS program serves youth 12-18 years of age and provides intensive case management services to referred local youth. A researcher report from the State of New York found that high recidivism rates could be attributed to an inconsistent program approach, lack of program continuity when juveniles transition from residential confinement to aftercare, and lack of support systems as youth move into young adulthood. Teaching a group psychoeducation where they are being guided through their probation to make the right decisions and be provided with the best resources will help the youth succeed.
