Why not both? Treat the symptom, getting help for these at-risk kids and work on the cause: figure out how to not get into this situation with all these at-risk kids to begin with. For some reason you can only talk about seatbelts—mentioning safe driving will get you downvotes.

Helping at-risk kids succeed is helping treat the cause. If you don't help these kids, they're going to grow up and have their own "at-risk" kids. And the cycle continues. These are efforts to break the cycle. This is proactive investment in the future.
