Why Boot camps have less Violence Than Prison
- More activities to do than prisons
- The way boot camps are run
- How boot camps try to avoid violence
- First of all, youth who have turned away from conventional institutions such as WAU and towards gang life or a life of crime often have little respect or regard for the rules of society including the law of the land.
- At a juvenile boot camp, the rules are uncompromising and to break them means immediate and harsh punishment.
- Juvenile boot camp can last anywhere from six weeks to six months or longer. That long duration in nonstop rigorous activity and discipline result in a feeling that many of these youth have never felt before.
- The process of juvenile boot camps is to provide a way to divert very troubled kids to a hardcore rehabilitation facility to give the penal system an option rather than sending a violent teenager or one who is in trouble with the law in some other way to jail.
