County authorizes Juvenile Justice Reinvestment Initiative grant application for Teen Court
Summary
Lawrence County authorized submission of a Juvenile Justice Reinvestment Initiative Fiscal Incentive Diversion Program Grant and designated Lawrence County Teen Court as the recipient if the grant is awarded.
The commission voted May 26 to authorize the chairman to sign and submit a Juvenile Justice Reinvestment Initiative (JJRI) Fiscal Incentive Diversion Program Grant application and designated the Lawrence County Teen Court as the grant recipient if funds are awarded.
Commissioner Brandon Flanagan moved to authorize the application and designate Teen Court; Commissioner Timm Comer seconded and the motion carried unanimously. Planning and program staff will complete the application and any subsequent grant administration would follow the county's normal grant procedures.
No dollar amount or funding breakdown was recorded in the minutes; the commission's action was limited to authorization to apply and to designate the intended recipient of the award.
