An Afrocentric program for African American males in the juvenile justice system.

A R Harvey1, A A Coleman.   

Abstract

Though the juvenile justice system provides an array of interventions, culturally relevant programs are necessary to deal with the myriad social problems, including an escalating crime rate, facing high-risk African American adolescent males. This article presents an Afrocentric approach to service delivery for these youths and their families.
