The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners approved the Juvenile Crime Prevention Council's 2026-27 spending plan at its May 4 meeting.
Judge Jay Corpening, chair of the JCPC, told commissioners the plan for year two of a two-year spending plan totaled $547,770 in state pass-through funds. He said allocations included $9,900 for administration and $406,345 for Youth Empowerment Services, and described other funded programs such as community justice services, parenting programs and teen court mediation.
Corpening told the board the council unanimously approved the plan at its February 20 meeting and emphasized the data-driven approach to selecting programs. Commissioners thanked the JCPC for its leadership and moved to approve; the transcript records a motion, second and a voice vote approving the spending plan.
