Description
Each one-hour episode focuses on a different
existing "behind bars" program in the U.S. and
follows four or five at-risk teens - before they
attend the program, throughout their day behind
bars, immediately afterwards - and then following
up with them one-month later to see the lasting
impact of the experience on their lives. A
combination of confrontation, information and
communication, these youthful offender programs
put boys and girls of all ethnicities, ranging in age
from 11-19, into intensive one-day "incarceration"
sessions that show them the realities of life behind
bars.
