Abstract
The Compassionate Approach to Learning Meditation (CALM), a manualized 5-day program that incorporates mindfulness training and compassion meditation, was implemented in a forensic setting with incarcerated juveniles (ages 12-18) in short-term detention. Results found the CALM program to be associated with significant reductions in anger and anxiety.
