Destabilizing Teens & Men

There are only a few students that disrupt a classroom. There could be only a few neighbors that disturb an ordinary quiet block. There are only a few male teens and men that commit crime in a neighborhood. 

Why can't city officials and community leaders find these teens and men and provide them mental and or spiritual services?

If these teenagers and men who don't want to be helped, they need to be incarcerated or run out of town.
