<br />
<br />Agency Roundtable
<br />Boomerang – Serving last students in Alternative to Suspension program, and have served 181
<br />referrals. 57% of referrals were from CHCCS and 43% from OCS. Biggest reason for referral
<br />has been fighting, which is a change from prior years where it was substance use. Kids in the
<br />After School program completed 660 hours of volunteer work. Partnered with AL Stanback this
<br />year to do a boys’ group and will continue the group next year as the kids move into 7th grade.
<br />Overall it’s been a great year with lots of partnerships.
<br />Volunteers for Youth – Great time of year for Community Service because community gardens
<br />are open and summer is coming.
<br />Freedom House – Currently serving 8 clients, but has another 4-5 in the works. Two Common
<br />Sense Parenting classes just finished up and have had some difficulty getting Spanish-speaking
<br />parents to participate in class.
<br />Dispute Settlement Center – Worked with about 20 kids through DJJ referrals. The majority of
<br />kids are coming in at risk-level of 3 (right in the middle). Will be starting another Family Table
<br />session on July 12 and trying to get a few more families to participate. Please send referrals.
<br />Wrenn House – Have been staying fairly busy, can hold up to 6 kids at one-time, but haven’t had
<br />many Orange kids lately.
<br />DJJ Data – April: 6 distinct juveniles, 9 complaints, 1 approved for court, 4 put on plan or
<br />contract, 5 school related offenses, and 1 juvenile in detention for 17 days.
<br />May: 4 distinct juveniles, 6 complaints, 1 approved for court, 3 put on a plan or contract, 3
<br />school related offenses, 1 juvenile in detention for 2 days, and 1 juvenile on electronic
<br />monitoring for 21 days .
