Another Landmark Case in York County!
Upon initial referral, Peter was a depressed and angry 17 year old with little support in his life. He was referred from probation for trespassing and providing false information to a police officer. Peter was habitually truant and open about his frequent marijuana habit. During the course of JusticeWorks’ services, Sean Lazarus was able to develop a strong positive relationship with Peter.

Sammy was a “high interest” case when referred. He had been adjudicated at the age of fifteen for a severe offense committed at age 13 (subsequent to an altercation and attack by a sibling’s friend).

Heartfelt Appreciation from An Armstrong Mom
To Whom it may concern, In the six years since our son’s adoption we have worked with many people to help him.

He wasn’t in our home very long on the first visit and Joey walked into the kitchen with a lot of attitude. Steve volunteered to help him with a chore that needed done. That was the start of an impressive relationship. We were stunned that Joey (who is 15) took to Steve that fast. It...
