I don't need a long explanation, but in your own words:
1. What was the reason you were in the program? (i.e. drugs, truancy, stealing, etc.)
2. What was the reason you got into these behaviors in the first place?
3. How did the program help you manage the behaviors or eliminate them?
4. What are you doing with yourself today?
For purposes of disclosure, I work with Kat, so I'm not here for a referral. I recognize that for some people these programs seem to work. I just want to know how they work (if you're anti-program save your rebuttal, I know your answer already). And yes for the record I'm generally anti-program, but I want the chance to hear the other side of the argument.
