Treating Delinquents in Traditional Agencies

Feldman, Ronald A.; And Others

Social Work, 17, 5, 71-78, Sep 72

A model for treating delinquents is proposed in which traditional community agencies would integrate small numbers of delinquents into groups of prosocial children. This innovation would reduce the adverse effects of labeling and peer-group composition, among others, without interfering significantly with the agencies' operations. (Author)
