Help and Hope for ‘Challenging’ Teens and
their Parents
Spectrum Youth and Family Services has a specialized program for youthful
offenders and teens who are behaviorally at-risk of problem-related police
contact. The program is called “Youth D.R.I.V.E.”, which stands for developing
respect, integrity, values and empathy. Services include group sessions on
anger-management, social skills, character and job readiness skills; may include
individual and family counseling; and often include community-service work if
required by the police, peer juries or the juvenile court.
Call (847) 884-6212 for information.
