Glen Mills gang

"Glen Mills Schools in Pennsylvania, a "boarding school" alternative to prison for about 1000 young members of street gangs convicted of crimes, seeks to bring about fundamental changes in behavior without incarceration. A system of rewards and privileges where the young men keep themselves under strict surveillance seems to work: of all institutions for juvenile offenders, Glen Mills' 32 percent relapse rate is the lowest in the country. Sam Ferrainola, the school's executive director, speaks about the system he pioneered. Filmed over the course of a year."--Container.
