<br /> Wrenn House—Currently have a bed available. YTD have served 6 kids and used 108 days,which is a
<br /> large increase from this time last fiscal year when only 42 days had been used. They just completed their
<br /> relicensing and are getting ready for a monitoring review with Denise this month.
<br /> Boomerang—Served 94 students YTD with the majority coming from Chapel Hill-Carrboro City
<br /> Schools; 3 of the students in March were court involved. The biggest reason for suspension last month
<br /> was insubordination which isn't a reason they have seen recently.
<br /> Volunteers for Youth—The Community Service program has served 57 kids so far but has about another
<br /> 12 referrals that they just received and Teen Court has served 42 youth YTD. Teen Court is also
<br /> scheduled for a monitoring review with Denise.
