Thank you. JusticeWorks initiates an Alternative Education DivisionMay 30th, 2009We are pleased to announce that we are starting alternative education programming as discrete activities and as an enhancement to our current programs. We have hired Dave Baker to lead this exciting effort. Dave has a Masters Degree in Education Administration and, starting as a classroom teacher, he served for nearly two decades in a leadership capacity for a national provider of alternative education programs. Dave brings a vast experience with state-of-the-art teaching technique, curriculum development and technological supports. Most important he has a passionate and unwavering commitment to help challenged youth become life-long learners. Dave embodies JusticeWorks commitment to do whatever it takes to achieve success with young people who have experienced little to none. JusticeWorks GROWS in Pike CountyMay 30th, 2009We are pleased that Pike County Office of Children & Youth Services and Juvenile Probation Office has elected to contract with JusticeWorks to implement a full continuum of care model. Tammy McCullough, CYS Director and Ed Joyce, Chief Juvenile Probation Officer have collaborated in order for us to offer our STOPP, JustCare and VIP programs as a resource for their clients. We will have one cross-trained staff who will provide all levels of care, as appropriate. Our continuum of care approach has proven to be a cost-effective model in other counties by being more flexible and responsive than several stand-alone programs. We are targeting implementation July 1, 2009. We very much appreciate their trust in JusticeWorks and look forward to our programs being a value added resource for Pike County.
