They know they fucked up, sort of like being frogmarched back into Boy Scouts. They work the menial, live in tents, and collect a pittance. But they get a break, a six week break from the nightmare. They are not running around hiding, they know there is a food tent. They get it. It is the cheapest camping we can give them.
Make it liquid. The local judge can just send a teenager on weekend work, a campout. Not punishment, just cheap labor and a break from the environment. You tell the kid, cheap labor is better than shoplifting, it is an upgrade, like a job, workcamp. Job openings for kids, right their listed for immediate demand in front of the judge.
