Extractions: Break New Ground When teachers at Fairdale High School in Kentucky became concerned about a 14-year-old girl (whom we'll call Wanda), they turned to the school's new Youth Services Center. The center is one of 37 new school-based social service centers in the Louisville area, and one of 373 Family Resource and Youth Service Centers statewide created by the comprehensive 1990 Kentucky Education Reform Act. Wanda is a bright girl with a young child. She lives with her mother, more than 10 miles from school. At this crisis point, Wanda's home was filled with tension. She regularly left the house with her child late at night against her mother's wishes. Then she came home too tired to catch the school bus the next day for the long ride to Fairdale. Concerned about Wanda's severe attendance problemseven though Fairdale has a program specially designed for young parents, male and femalethe school wanted to intervene before they lost her. Concerned Intervention Dan Clemons, Fairdale's Youth Services Center coordinator, convinced Wanda and her mother to come in for some meetings. He arranged ongoing psychotherapy for the distressed young woman. During the course of their conversations, the therapist discovered that Wanda was a victim of sexual abuse from within the family.

Society as a whole picks up more than 85 percent of these costs, not the individuals involved in the crash.
