Oklahoma Recidivism Study
NOTE FROM Bethesda Family Services
Foundation:
We believe the low recidivism rate of
the Bethesda Group Home indicated below is the direct result of our
Relational Healing and Peer Governance Models, which focus on addressing
the core issues of juveniles. By identifying and addressing the core
issues, we are able to take the juveniles and their families through a
healing process that results in permanent positive changes in behavior
and decision making.

This report is based on several sources of data
including the Community Intervention Centers, secure detention
facilities and the client information system (JOLTS) of the Office of
Juvenile Affairs (OJA). Additionally, data is obtained from the
Oklahoma Department of Corrections (DOC) and matched against data from
JOLTS in order to determine recidivism rates for those juveniles who
have aged out.
