Considers the role of the district attorney as a catalyst for aggressive school-based educational programs to help young people avoid trouble with the legal system. The author argues that schools are the logical sites to provide services in alcohol- and drug-abuse prevention, and discusses ways of using education to deal with the root causes of crime. (GR)
