This appears to be a good alternative, since prostitutes most often leave group and foster care because at that point in time they are participants in their crimes and often do not want or feel they need services designed to remove them from prostitution. The coercive nature of their existence results in their decision to return to prostitution, almost every time, unless they are in a controlled environment for long enough for counselors to work with them. This would increase the chances that we can help these girls extricate themselves from a very oppressive and destructive environment.
