Abstract: CHINS-UP is a week-long day camp organized for the Chid In Need Of Supervision, a joint effort of the Chambers County Extension Service and the local juvenile court. It focuses on serving youth at risk with severe behavior problems. These youths have the potential for becoming juvenile delinquents. This seminar will show how this camp is an alternative outreach program for CHINS to acquire positive adult role model figures and to form positive peer group relationships. The camp is operated on these objectives: teamwork, self-government, adult partnership, and parent involvement. Programs held during camp include: personal hygiene, building self-esteem, goal setting, developing job-hunting skills, drugs, teen sexuality, physical fitness, "tough love,: and parenting training for problem youth. Presentations will be on what was done, results, hand-outs, visuals on involvement with the activities, feedback, and interaction of participants.
