Abstract
This article delineates some alternate models for redesign of job Corps Centers located in both rural and urban settings. Significant observations, especially from the standpoint of mental health programs, based on interviews, documents, and site visits indicated the presence of communications difficulties and problems of mission and lack of shared social goals among and within the wide variety of existing Job Corps Centers. A series of alternate models for redesign is presented. For each model, the presuppositions, objectives, evaluation methods and outcomes, and a critique of feasibility and shortcomings are included.Keywords
