Adolescents that have been captured for being immorally involved in sexual activities will be placed in the conduct rehabilitation centre.

Besides, the financial need, what help can be offered to this centre to help improve the functions of the centre? How do the centers work together with the parents of the trainees in the centre to help prevent relapse cases among the trainees? In this study, 1 private, 1 NGO, and 1 government owned centres participate as the informant.

Preliminary findings indicate that, there are lot of rooms for improvement that can be done to help run the centre. For the privately owned centre, room for improvement and help to be offered is humongous.
