Popis:	The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of participation in the Intensive Aftercare Demonstration Project on relationships between youth and their service providers. Successful intensive case supervision often assumes that providers develop positive relationships with their clients. The study employed an experimental research design in which participating youth were randomly assigned to treatment (received intensive aftercare services) or control conditions during the assessment phase of their commitment. A total of 97 youth participating in the pilot study completed survey questionnaires, at up to four separate phases, to assess change over time. Two survey instruments were used to measure youth perceptions of relationships with service providers as well as case manager perceptions of youth strengths. The findings suggest that participation in the experimental group was strongly associated with youth's perceiving positive relationships with their client managers.
