Prevention/Intervention Programs

A major initiative of the Juvenile Justice Reform Act is the development of prevention programs as a part of the continuum of juvenile justice services.

Truancy has been identified as an early warning sign of students heading towards potentially delinquent activity and is frequently an indicator of a more serious underlying problem. Cowley County has chosen to make truancy prevention a priority due to the reasons identified above, as well as others.

The Immediate Intervention Program is an alternative to court for juveniles arrested for the first time on a non-violent misdemeanor offense.
