This YouTube channel features episodes of 'Beyond Scared Straight,' a reality television series documenting the efforts of correctional facilities to deter at-risk teenagers from crime and negative behavior through immersion programs. Participants encounter intense simulations, confront challenging disciplinary actions, and receive counseling aimed at instilling responsibility and promoting positive decision-making.

Beyond Scared Straight profiles the new approach to keeping today's teens from becoming tomorrow's prisoners. The power of the original Scared Straight! program has inspired dozens of inmate-run intervention programs in men's and women's prisons across the country. These youthful offender programs put boys and girls of all ethnicities and backgrounds, ranging in age from 11-18, into intensive one-day in-prison sessions that show them the realities of life behind bars.
