Reform School (1891)
• The Temptation it offers to parents and guardians to throw off their most
scared responsibilities
• The contaminating influence of association
• The enduring stigma of having been committed

• …renders impossible the study and treatment of each child as an individual

• Decarceration: An intentional process to reduce secure
confinement through shorter sentences, expanded use of
alternative sentencing, and policy directives.

• Deinstitutionalization: Any effort to reduce the population
of institutions or to reduce the processes that create
dependency on institutional environments.
