Many people who support integrated services believe that community-based models are more accessible than school-based models. Arguments against the school-based models include the fact that most at-risk young people and families may not attend school or feel comfortable using services based there. In addition, because many students attend schools outside their own home neighborhood, school-based services may not always be the most accessible. Furthermore, other service providers may have difficulty fitting into the school culture. Complex insider-outsider issues, lack of clarity about goals and responsibilities, and friction based on differing views of possible solutions may be more likely to disrupt implementation in a school setting than in a neutral community location.
