Screening and assessing more youth in the juvenile justice system doesn't have to mean "widening the net" -- in other words, pulling teens into the justice system who wouldn't have been there otherwise -- according to Yolanda Perez-Logan, project director for Reclaiming Futures in Santa Cruz, CA. (Ms. Perez-Logan refers to Dr. Robert Schwebel's "The Seven Challenges" program; you can learn more about it in an archived webinar and PowerPoint presentation on the Reclaiming Futures website: http://www.reclaimingfutures.org/webinars.)
