Nonetheless, by maintaining youth--ideally in their community of origin, but at least maintaining youth--the advantages are that the youth are linked with so many different support systems and are still able to serve their sentence. We see much greater and better results than having a young person going to secure custody and being cut off from all of these. In some cases it's almost like going to a school for crime, when they can come out more disengaged, having learned the wrong set of skills.
