Re: Research or evaluation of youth boot camp programs

<x-html>

<body>
The US Government Accountability Office did a review of abuse and deaths
in<br>
these camps in the US. See:
<a href="http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d08146t.pdf"; eudora="autourl">http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d08146t.pdf<br><br>
<br>
</a>Quoting Don Cohon &lt;cohond@peds.ucsf.edu&gt;:<br><br>
&gt; A colleague from Germany sent me this request for information about
&quot;boot<br>
&gt; camp&quot; programs. You can reply to me directly at
cohond@peds.ucsf.edu<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &quot;I would like get information about some specific American
&quot;youth help&quot; (or<br>
&gt; better youth punishment) approaches, because it's a big discussion
in<br>
&gt; Germany right now, whether to copy those approaches or not. I would
call<br>
&gt; this current trend &quot;militarization of pedagogy/education&quot;.
So if you have<br>
&gt; any information or references about:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; a) Boot camp for youth<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; b) Glenn Mills schools<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; c) Other projects that have similar concepts or work
analogically<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; please let me know. I'm especially interested in
research/evaluations about<br>
&gt; these approaches. Or maybe you even know some experts I could
connect with.&quot;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Thank you!<br>
&gt;<br>
