Troup County staff asks board to accept $425,000 juvenile justice grant
Summary
Nicole Kostial asked the board to accept a $425,000 juvenile justice incentive award from CJCC to fund multisystemic therapy for moderate‑to‑high‑risk adjudicated youth; she said there is no local match requirement.
Nicole Kostial told commissioners that CJCC awarded the county $425,000 to provide multisystemic therapy for moderate to high‑risk adjudicated youth and their families. Kostial said the county has received the award repeatedly over a decade, and that the grant requires no county match; the program is intended to reduce recidivism and support family intervention services.
Kostial requested permission for the county to accept the grant award and to proceed with program implementation if the board approves. Commissioners asked no substantive clarifying questions during the work session; staff confirmed the award will appear on the evening agenda for formal acceptance.
