What type of intervention may be recommended by the department during a commitment conference?

During a commitment conference, the department typically recommends residential intervention as a type of intervention. This approach provides a structured and supportive environment for juveniles who may require more intensive care and supervision than outpatient options can provide. Residential interventions often include various therapeutic services, educational opportunities, and skill-building programs aimed at addressing the underlying issues that led to the juvenile's involvement with the justice system. This setting allows for continuous monitoring and support, which can be crucial for making significant behavioral changes.

While private counseling, weekend camps, and group discussions can be beneficial, they may not provide the comprehensive, 24-hour care and structure that residential interventions offer, especially for youth with more severe behavioral health or social issues.
