Young people involved in substance abuse and delinquency are a major economic and social cost to Australia. Although numerous crime prevention strategies have been developed for working with at-risk, homeless, substance abusing and delinquent young people, few have been adequately evaluated and outcomes are poor. Almost none reflect contemporary knowledge in theories of adolescent development. This research will develop an innovative intervention based on Service Learning relevant to other diversion programs within Juvenile Justice and an industry model for long-term sustainable program evaluation. We will also develop an intervention model relevant to other organisations with similar aims and budgetary constraints.

涉及药物滥用和犯罪的年轻人是澳大利亚的主要经济和社会成本。虽然已经制定了许多预防犯罪战略，以对付处于危险中的、无家可归的、滥用药物的和有犯罪行为的年轻人，但很少有战略得到充分评估，结果也很差。几乎没有一个反映了青少年发展理论中的当代知识。本研究将开发一种基于服务学习的创新干预方法，该方法与青少年司法中的其他转移项目相关，并建立一个长期可持续项目评估的行业模型。我们还将开发一种与其他具有类似目标和预算限制的组织相关的干预模式。
