This course also discusses the spectrum of intervention – prevention to rehabilitation.

• Explains how a youth could move within the spectrum: Developmental programs – diversionary programs – probations – hostel/home
• Use specific programs to illustrate challenges/nuances of:
  • Different interventions sitting on different points of spectrum
  • Voluntary versus involuntary services
