On July 27th, the Office of Volunteer Services Team participated in the "Back to School Bash" held at the J.A. Walters YMCA in Gainesville. Similar in structure to the Department of Juvenile Justice's "Repack A Backpack" campaign, the "Back to School Bash" provided free school supplies to youth in the Hall County region.
Special thanks goes out to Office of Planning & Preparedness Director Scott Cagle and Victim Advocates Loronda Giddens and Sara Gardner for their support and in providing valuable information on DJJ programs and services to the local community.
