Juvenile Community Corrections (JCC)
The Juvenile Community Corrections (JCC) program is an alternative for youth on probation or supervised released, providing services to assist adjudicated youth in successfully completing their probation or release requirements for positive discharge out of the juvenile system. Program referrals are made to JCC service providers from juvenile probation officers, District Court judge, district attorneys, public defenders, private attorneys, juvenile correctional facilities, or the CYFD supervised release panel. The program utilizes a team approach, which includes the client, family, JCC contracted agency, local public-school staff, juvenile probation officers, and other significant individuals in the clients life. The program provides participants with program services based on the clients individual needs and focuses on teaching life skills (Job search support, social skills development, school support and tutoring, and other offered within the community) so that the youth can learn how to manage their affairs appropriately and responsibly.
Seeking Safety
Seeking Safety (SS) is a flexible, present focused cognitive behavioral therapy designed to help individuals with co-occurring post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorder (SUD). This evidence-based program integrates treatment for both conditions at the same time, emphasizing the development of safe coping skills to improve relationships, thinking, behavior, emotions. SS offers adaptable delivery methods, including one-on-one instruction, making it suitable for diverse settings and populations. The purpose of the meta-analysis is to examine the efforts of SS on comorbid PTSD and SUD across randomized controlled trials (RCT). Only available if there is a JCC youth enrolled.
