Missouri's Therapeutic Approach to Juvenile Offenders (DVD Supplement) Review Copy Not Available
spacer
Abstract:
This 10-minute video is a companion to "Taking a Therapeutic Approach to Juvenile Offenders: The ‘Missouri Model,’" Kennedy School case number C16-09-1904.0. In it, Tim Decker, the director of the Missouri Division of Youth Services, lays out the philosophy and practice of the therapeutic process used by the department in its treatment of youth offenders. The video shows the young people as they explore the roots of their behavior and develop tools to process trauma, often by articulating and sharing their feelings and concerns in a group setting. The ultimate goal of the program, Decker explains, is to encourage internalized change and foster social competencies. Powerful testimony from some of the youth sheds light on the main challenges they experience as they struggle to rebuild their lives.
