Abstract: Residential treatment centers are relatively new on the scene of community services for maladjusted youngsters. They provide active treatment carried into all aspects of twenty-four-hour living. The continued success of these pro grams is dependent on adequate support, the competence of staff, and the co-operation with all the other services in the community. These centers try to work with children who have been hurt in life and give them a safe place, encouragement to grow, learn, and be as creative as they can.
