(If no challenges eo|mted, please write <br /> none.) The numbers of youth served decreased somewhat due to challenges finding volunteer mentors <br /> and to a decrease in the number of young people referred to teen court and community service. We have <br /> tried - and continue to try - a variety of volunteer recruitment methods in hopes of finding more mentors. <br /> The number of young people referred from the court system is something over which we have no control <br /> and, of course, a decrease in those numbers can be considered a good thing. <br /> AGENCY BUDGET <br /> FY 05-06 FY 06-07 FY 07-08 FY 08-09 • <br /> Actual Actual Actual Projected <br /> $320,591 $301,063 $316,697 �33O <br /> To�a|Ag�ncy �udget . . . $330,241 <br /> Orange County's Contribution $25.000 $26.000 $25.000 $25.000 <br /> 89 <br />
