When a youth enters the home it will be because of his or her own voluntary applica tion, a non-compulsory refer ral by an agency (including the police and sheriff depart ments), or a compulsory Youth Achievement Program Leaders Support Goals, Methods referral by an agency serving these two counties. These youths will usually have problems related to delin quent behavior, for example, truancy, lack of discipline, misdemeanors, but not or dinarily felonies. Admission to the program will not be complete until it has been found that treatment in a residential setting outside the home is in the youth’s best interest. v| The first phase of the program will be a point system which is designed to motivate the students to learn more appropriate behavior. He can accrue points to trade for special privileges. Almost all behaviors which will earn or lose points are formalized and explicit to the point of being posted on a bulletin board. There can be little argument over points lost. There is little need to interrupt normal relationships or to express anger or negative emotions as the student knows his penalty in advance. As soon as possible the point system is phased out and a merit system takes its place. This system uses no points given or taken sway but emphasizes that the yout/i is on his own.
