I hear you, but it's probably a good thing. I've noticed that the more targeted a program is, the better it tends to be. I've seen many programs get ruined for everybody by trying to do too much.

Agreed. If they had this mixed with some sort of inpatient rehab I could see it offering a lot of hope to some really in-need people.

That could be a somewhat different program, as rehab patients have very different requirements.

No, that would need to be a different program. You can’t just throw recovering drug addicts with young, impressionable kids.

That what they do at job corps. There are plenty of court mandated students enrolled.
