  The Youthful Offenders Program is an alcohol and drug education program for persons cited for underage drinking, and similar offenses, inCentre County. Developed by Community Help Centre and approved by local District Judges, the program offers offenders an alternative to the standard fine and the permanent criminal record carried by underage drinking. Instructors have completed our 180 hour training forhotline and crisis intervention support, which focuses on drug and alcohol information and intervention skills, communication skills, and appropriate referrals to community services. Instructors undergo a probationary period during which their abilities to utilize active teaching methods, provide appropriate guidance and boundaries for students, adhere to policies and procedures, and work constructively with co-instructors are closely monitored.
