Crime rate for juveniles is a national concern. This study attempted to determine which juvenile delinquents do best in a community-based treatment program in order to explain which client characteristics are associated with positive treatment outcomes. This study focused on juvenile delinquents receiving treatment from a community-based program. Eligible participants included a sample of youth referred directly by a coordinator of Juvenile Justice Services from probation, ages 11-18, who were selected from the Community Mental Health Center's (CMHC), Youth Assessment Project (YAP). The sample consisted of 89 youth, all of whom became engaged in treatment services at the CMHC between March 2005 and March 2006. At the youth's intake, they were provided with a Youth Asset Survey (YAS), which evaluated the adolescent's protective assets. Along with the YAS information, other independent client characteristics were incorporated in the archival database including, family status, family income, ethnicity, religious affiliation, gender, age, and diagnostic information. These independent variables were examined in relation to the dependent variables, percentage of treatment goals attained at discharge, recidivism rate, and referral to DOC or JD. Various statistical analyses were performed including Pearson correlation, independent t-tests, and cross-tabulation chi-squares. A statistically significant finding indicated a positive correlation between juvenile delinquents with the specific asset of Responsible Choices, as measured by the YAS, and a higher percentage of treatment goals attained at discharge. Additionally, it was demonstrated that those juveniles over the age of 16 are less likely to be referred to DOC or JD. Results approaching significance demonstrated a positive correlation between juvenile delinquents with the specific asset of Time with Religion, and a higher percentage of treatment goals. Another marginally significant finding demonstrated that those juveniles with a diagnosis of CD or ODD achieved lower percentages of treatment goals, compared to those juveniles without a diagnosis of CD or ODD. Unfortunately, as a result of incomplete participant data sets and poor effect size, significant findings were not obtained for the other research hypotheses. Although these findings are limited, future research can be geared at attrition rates, and what needs to occur to prevent future attrition.
