The effects of Mississippi Department of Corrections' Project Aware Program, a non-confrontational prisoner-run juvenile delinquency deterrence program, were evaluated. The treatment group of 97 randomily assigned adjudicated juvenile delinquent males attended the prison-based program. The offenses and school attendance records of the treatment group were contrasted with those of a control group comprised of 79 randomly assigned adjudicated juvenile delinquent males. Although participation in the program did not appear to reduce recidivism risk, those attending the program were significantly less likely to drop out of school than were controls.
