Opinion
July 10, 1995
Appeal from the Family Court, Queens County (Lubow, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The Family Court's decision with respect to disposition demonstrated that it carefully considered the least restrictive alternatives consistent with the needs of the juvenile and the need for the protection of the community. Accordingly, it cannot be said that the Family Court improvidently exercised its discretion in placing the appellant with the Division for Youth (see, Family Ct Act § 141, 352.2 [a]; Matter of Jason W., 207 A.D.2d 495). Sullivan, J.P., Miller, Copertino, Joy and Friedmann, JJ., concur.
