The boot camp model became a correctional panacea for juvenile offenders during the early 1990s, promising the best of both worlds - less recidivism and low operating costs. Although there have been numerous studies of both camp programs since that time, most have relied on non randomized ocmparison groups. The california youth authoruty's (CYA's) experimental study of its juvenile boot camp and intensive parole program (called LEAD) versus standard custody and parole was an important exception, but its legislatively mandated in house evaluation was prepared before complete outcome data were available. The present study capitalizes on full and relatively long - term follow up arrest data for the LEAD evaluation provided by the california department of justice in august 2002. Using both survival models and negative binomial regression models, the results indicate that there were no significant differences between groups in terms of time to first arrest or average arrest frequency.
