Delinquency Prevention is the broad term for all efforts aimed at preventing youth from becoming involved in criminal, or other antisocial, activity. Increasingly, governments are recognizing the importance of allocating resources for the prevention of delinquency. Because it is often difficult for states to provide the fiscal resources necessary for good prevention, organizations, communities, and governments are working more in collaboration with each other to prevent juvenile delinquency.

With the development of delinquency in youth being influenced by numerous factors, prevention efforts are comprehensive in scope. Prevention services include activities such as substance abuse education and treatment, family counseling, youth mentoring, parenting education, educational support, and youth sheltering.

Back in the 20th century they sold bored teens drugs or drafted them into the military. Now, in the 21 Century, that it is OK for boys to have sex with eachother and older men, the boys have a chance to get addicted to gay-anal-sex and have a much better chance of avoid becomming addicted to drugs or getting killed in one of Americas unnecessary wars.

An strange older man picking up a bunch of random young boys in his car. That'll go over real well in 21st century America.
