You are a case manager in an alternative school for teenagers who have behavioral and emotional problems and Rick is referred to you. Rick’s mother is addicted to cocaine, and his father is not in the picture. Only recently Rick was moved to his grandmother’s home. His grandmother seems to be intent on helping Rick. She works as a domestic in a large office building downtown and is not home before 9 PM. You are concerned that Rick is home alone after school and you are also concerned about his getting his homework done. In addition, Rick has been having problem with other teens: hitting and punching, name-calling, and cutting up in class, all behaviors that need to be curbed if Rick is going to get anything out of the alternative school. Based on your research and the course materials, develop a plan of action for Rick that takes into consideration behavioral, social learning, and cognitive interventions.

Read the case scenario and answer the questions.
You are a counselor at the Oasis Rehabilitation and Treatment Center, a court-mandated criminal justice facility, where ex-offenders live and are cared for who have problems with substance abuse.
The rules clearly state that no drugs are tolerated on the premises. Should any one of the house inhabitants break this rule then the rule demands immediate discharge from the treatment program. Each new member is informed of this rule upon their arrival and is asked to sign a promise to keep it. One morning when the personnel arrive at the treatment center they find the place in chaos. There has been partying during the weekend involving the use of cocaine. Urine tests show that at least three of the inmates – John, Brian, and Leon – have clearly been offenders of this recent incident. It is suspected that others have also participated, but of this there is no proof.
According to the rules these three offenders should now be discharged, but there is disagreement among the personnel. Some say discharge is the only reasonable action since they have clearly broken the treatment centers most important rule. Any exception to this would simply undermine the rules and lessen confidence in the treatment and the personnel.
Others argue that an exception should be made in this case since a discharge would have serious consequences and perhaps even lead to some person�s early demise. John has been in and out of treatment and detention institutions since the age of eight. He has now for the first time been able to receive the help offered and has begun to achieve some kind of order in his life. He has been at Oasis for a long time and it is an important source of stability for him. The personnel fear that discharging him will send him back to drugs and other more serious criminal activity. If Leon is discharged several of the personnel are concerned that he may fall into a deep depression and become suicidal.
Building upon all of the information you have compiled so far on this client from previous weeks of the course project prepare the following:
1.Develop a Service Plan for Leon.
2.Prepare a Sample presentation of Leon
