StopLift. This intensive, one-day, retail-theft remediation class for adult and juvenile shoplifters is modeled after the Minnesota Youth Intervention Program Association’s evidence-based program, Stolen Moments. Participants examine their personal motives for stealing and learn about the legal consequences if they continue to shoplift as well as how to prevent a reoccurrence of the behavior. Classes are taught by trained instructors with experience working with at-risk populations.

Self-referrals are accepted. For more information, class schedules and fees, please call Kim Hartzell, at-risk youth & child abuse prevention manager, at 610-433-6556, ext. 117, or email her at kimhartzell@thepwf.org. Referrals also can be made directly via fax at 610-433-1983. Please indicate on the fax whether this is a referral for adult or juvenile StopLift and provide all contact information for the individual being referred and the individual making the referral.
