Much of these social programs and adding additional officers sounds great when talking behind a podium in a political debate, but in actually will have no effect on the young that are, (1)raised horribly usually by a single mother, and no father (2) already have their destiny set to live a life of crime.
No social program or rehab is gonna stop a 16 year old from fatally shooting a convenience store clerk in a robbery, like what recently happened in St Aug. Have you ever seen Goodfellas, when Henry's father caught him hanging out with 'the guys' and then gave him a beating, and Henry said the beatings didn't have any effect? That's reality.
