Most of the teens are on probation—
their offenses range from infractions
such as underage drinking to crimes as
serious as felony assault—and have been
court-ordered to perform community
service. All of them are part of CSF’s
in-home supervision and foster care
programs, which include individual
and family counseling, recovery support,
drug testing and restorative skillbuilding.
As with all its programs, CSF
brings a restorative focus to community
service; teens not only complete service
hours but are also helped to make positive
changes. (excerpt)
