| The YouthARTS Development Project, a research initiative of the U.S.
Department of Justice, offered arts opportunities to youth at risk in
three cities and found decreased delinquent behavior and improved
cooperation and attitudes about school. In collaboration with national
arts organizations and local arts agencies, the initiative ran in
Atlanta, Portland, and San Antonio gathering objective evidence for
reducing the risk of juvenile delinquency. The model has been adapted
by Americans for the Arts into a user-friendly and comprehensive
toolkit for widespread implementation. |
