A fourth-tim- e offender is fined and must attend an extensive chemical substance treatment and counseling program. Very often the offenders are so seriously involved in drugs or alcohol by this time that they have been apprehended because they violated their training programs, the judge noted. DR. NOEL Gill, a juvenile court counselor representing the Davis County Mental Health Department, said there are 19 ways that the juvenile court can become involved with an adolescent. Some of them include probation; custody of the family or state; confinement; work programs; restitution and fines procedures; mental and psychiatric treatment; or any other treatment or confinement that the court deems reasonable and necessary. The drug and alcohol program for juvenile offenders and their parents include individual and group counk seling and therapy. The classes are two to three hours each. By GARY R. BLODGETT Clipper News Editor FARMINGTON LHS applied psychology Bv DON ETA GATHERUM LAYTON Youth helping youth is the educational concept behind a new Applied Psychology class being offered this year at Layton High School. The goal of the program is not to create student counselors but train students to become facilitators interested in helping their peers. Theyve had special training in communication relationskills and ships. inter-person- JANET GIBBS is teaching this class of 24 students, assisted by Austin Chiles from the Davis County Mental Health department and Phil Fast, school psychologist. Some class funding comes from the mental health department. That agency also purchased textbooks for the class. One of the first steps in becoming a "peer facilitator is to learn more about yourself. The unique textbook this class uses is a combination of case studies, facts, acti-viti- es and different ways to approach a problem. Students complete sentences like The most is..., Caring is... important quality of any good friend is. Another activity requires the student to make a timeline listing the important events in their life. EVENTUALLY class students will become well enough informed about themselves and the traits of their peers to offer friendship and assistance in many school-relate- d areas. For example, if a new stu- dent enrolls at Layton High School, class members might be called upon to befriend the newcomer by showing him around the school, introducing him to special activities, clubs and programs available in the school and the community and becoming a friend, a person who cares about another person. Members of the Applied Psychology class belong to Layton Chemical ConHighs ACCT--A1- 1 trol Team. They will be used as helpers for students who need to talk about drugs and alcohol. Their approach will be listening and understanding not judging and helping - Procedures for E -- IN FEBRUARY the ACCT will sponsor a Drug Awareness Week. Throughout the year class members will present programs in the drivers education classes and in the elementary and junior high schools. The idea is to help not preach. Programs will stress build- and social skills ing which has the side benefit of preventing drug and alcohol abuse. Members of the applied psychology class represent a good cross-sectio- n of the Layton High drug-relate- . There are student government leaders, athletes, Lancel-lemusicians, new wavers, preppies and average, ordinary students in the class. Many hope to major in psychology or related fields in the future. Others simply have a desire to want to help people their own age. s, ACCT officers work closely with Mrs. Gibbs to develop a course of study and a program that w ill enable others to do things that facilitate themselves toward a goal. ACCT officers are Tammy Talbot, president; Tat Thompson, vice president; Teresa Ramirez, secretary; Michele Hancock, PTSA Representative; Maggie Knowl-torepresentative to the SBO; Cathy Keen, representative to the school paper, dmg n, Get candy -- apprehending and penalties for adolescents caught in possession or distributing alcohol or drugs were brought to light at a meeting of the Davis County Task Force on Drug and Alcohol Abuse. FIRST DISTRICT Juvenile Court Judge L. Kent Bachman told the Alliance Committee that the juvenile court system has jurisdiction over all persons from the time they are born until they reach legal age. But there are still some loopholes in the state laws - particularly for persons aged 16 to 18 who can not be forced by court order or parental consent to receive medical or psychiatric treatment for severe cases of chemical dependency (drug or alcohol abuse) unless there is also a felony crime involved. AND ITS sad when you look at the d number of cases of crimes among our youth, commented Judge Bachman. He noted the following; In 1984, there were 3,885 referals of possession of alcohol in the state of which 570 - or 15 percent were in Davis County. Seventeen percent of all cases referred to Juvenile Court in Davis County were He emphasized that very few cases involved juveniles dealing (selling) drugs. JUDGE BACHMAN said that in his court 30 percent of his referals had never been to Juvenile Court before, but 45 percent had three or more previous offenses. For these, and other reasons, Judge Bachman said he has devised the following - sometimes controversial - procedures of handling first through fourthtime offenders: five-wee- -- once-a-wee- drug-relate- d.

She emphasized that all calls remain anonymous and up to $1,000 can be given by the State Bureau of Investigation which directs the program, for calls which result in major crackdowns or arrests.
