Have a vision of all youth coming together in a <br /> holistic way and not isolating any sub-groups of youth community and building connections <br /> across groups. Program is almost entirely volunteer run and so there is no cost to the youth for <br /> services/programming. <br /> Project has a number of different programs and he is here today to speak about the <br /> Reintegration Support Network (RSN). RSN has been receiving referrals from DJJ for youth <br /> post-treatment (mental health& substance abuse) to engage them in building community <br /> networks of support. Have been working closely with Peggy for some time and would to <br /> network with other programs to provide youth with transition supports. <br /> Youth Community Project is serving as a hub for a number of various youth programs <br /> including biking, LGBT, youth circus, immigrant youth forum, and many more. <br /> ➢ Next JCPC Meeting: Friday, October 2, 2015; Location: Hillsborough Commons, 113 <br /> Mayo St, Hillsborough NC <br />
