courts are meant to steer certain youth towards psychiatric treatment rather than

减少长期再犯. The students and faculty in the MJCC will be working
with court staff as well as staff from Altapointe Health Systems to identify juvenile
offenders who need specialized mental healthcare. 美国的教师和学生将会
be involved in conducting psychological assessments of such youth and helping gather
data to evaluate the effectiveness of the court.
