Data collection will include having 50 volunteers complete a questionnaire, with consideration of race and gender. The findings suggested that no relationship exist between runaways engaging in drug use and the amount of stress experienced at home or during the runaway.

As the results of the study indicate, integration was not the most utilized goal of treatment among the participants of this study.
