Going beyond incarceration: helping juvenile offenders reintegrate into school and community is the latest research developed by Kathy Hogan, professor in Augusta State University’s Department Educational Leadership, Counseling, and Special Education. According to Hogan, her study shows the differences between the educational programs in youth detention centers and public school systems, and how it affects the offender’s academic success. However, her research also provides solutions on how to help school administrators discover ways in transitioning juveniles back into the daily routines of a school. As a result of her study, Hogan discovered a number of challenges of reintegrating juveniles back into the classroom.
