Answer:D) rehabilitation.

Explanation:

Criminal rehabilitation is driven by the idea that people are not natural bad but they learn criminal behaviour through environmental influences.

It is based on a belief that people are driven by situations into criminal activities such as poverty, abuse and how they were brought up.

Rehabilitation isolate people from environmental factors that encourages their criminal behaviour and are put in a place where they can learn other ways of living.

The supportive foster home will teach him certain skills that may be necessary for him to survive without committing criminal activities.
