Is NYC a program for troubled youth, therapy program, or behavioral modification program?
No. While we do accept folks who have involvement with the criminal justice system, we do not recruit specifically for these youth. Furthermore, any youth who has been involved in the criminal justice system must be approved by the office based on the length of time since the incident and the progress they have made since then. We are also not a therapy program or behavioral modification program. While many youth who come out here have incredible experiences, it is not the job of field staff to counsel or provide therapy for the youth who work for us.
