Summary
The board approved acceptance of a CJCC Delinquency Prevention Grant awarded to juvenile court totaling $47,257 (reimbursable, no local match), funding therapy and prevention programs through 09/30/2026.
A juvenile court representative asked the board to accept a renewal of the Delinquency Prevention Grant from the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council (CJCC).
