The authors distinguish the Intensive Aftercare Program (IAP) model from other models and programs that have been implemented and assessed with varying degrees of success and analyze individual IAP initiatives. |

Abstract:
|
While other aftercare evaluations have not all been
experimental in design, the IAP evaluation uses experimental
methodology to gauge the success of four projects supported by
the Office of Juvenile Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) in their
implementation of the IAP model. Aftercare initiatives, including
the IAP model, are examined in light of a University of Maryland
report on the effectiveness of various crime prevention
strategies. Recent juvenile aftercare initiatives in
Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Michigan are briefly described. The
OJJDP's IAP approach is examined, with mention of pilot programs
in Colorado, Nevada, New Jersey, and Virginia. A comparative
analysis of aftercare projects is presented in a matrix, and the
effectiveness of aftercare programs is discussed with respect to
juvenile rehabilitation and treatment. The authors conclude
effective aftercare programs must include rehabilitation and
services to address the needs of individual juveniles. 71
