In this paper, some models of juvenile antisocial behavior are presented and the constructionist and systemic Integrated Risk Reduction Program (Pakman, 2007) it is analyzed, as an instrument of family intervention with these adolescents. Analyzing 12 dimensions of family life (physical and mental health, substance abuse, education, employment, housing/mobility, legal problems, violence, ethnic/social dissonance, poverty, social network, social security/disability) this program advocates the co – construction of the assessment and intervention process, which one seeks to realize the empowerment of the participants.
