Accomplishments
Every dollar invested in YSB diversion activities saves the community $8 in future social program costs. Eighty per cent of 1550 diverted youth do not have further contact with the legal/judicial system and over 200 connected with needed chemical and mental health services. After just two appointments, 83.3% of parents of Youth Focused Family Counseling clients found counseling to be very helpful and many commented on the great rapport between the counselor and young client. Fifty-eight per cent of clients showed significant improvement on one or more behavioral dimensions after three months of counseling.
Current Goals
The overarching goal of YSB is to keep young people out of the juvenile justice system through early intervention activities, youth focused family counseling and diversion programs. Services also focus on reducing alcohol, tobacco and other drug use and abuse among youth.
