Effective community based interventions offer several advantages over residential programs. The most obvious is the cost savings, with funds devoted to treatment services rather than the additional burden of facilities. More important is the ability to treat the youth within the context of home and community. The treatment team can directly assess the family and neighborhood factors that contribute to continued delinquency and determine what resources are available for change. If the safety and containment of adjudicated youth permit, community based interventions are preferable. Meta-analytic studies have provided more detailed overview of community based delinquency programs. It is also instructive to consider delinquency programs that have failed to produce the desired results. Two examples that have received a great deal of popular attention are "wilderness challenge" and "boot camp". In order to better address the multifaceted nature of delinquent behavior, more programs are emphasizing a systems approach in treatment.
