Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The answer should include the following points:
Ranches:
are minimum-security institutional placements.
are reserved for youths who have committed minor offenses, or who have been committed to the department of youth services or private corrections for the first time.
have a minimum amount of security, and only about 20 percent have one or more confinement features other than locked sleeping rooms.
are camps where residents typically do conservation work in a state park, cutting grass and weeds, cleaning up, and doing general maintenance.
