| Description | In order to identify effective approaches to truancy prevention, the researchers conducted a survey of programs across the country. They present three types of programs: 1) early prevention programs, 2) programs designed to assist truant students that would otherwise be referred by their schools to family court, and 3) programs designed to address truant students against whom status offender petitions have already been filed and who are at risk of detention and placement. |
