Then become a volunteer today!
Family of Woodstock is currently looking for volunteers living or working in Ulster County to take part in our Juvenile Community Accountability Board (JCAB). The JCAB is a part of the One80 program, a diversion program working to keep juveniles out of family court and the juvenile justice system. Volunteers for the JCAB meet with the youth and their parent/guardian in order to help the youth understand the impact of their action. The board uses RESTORATIVE JUSTICE techniques to develop an agreement with the youth that requires them to complete activities that repair the harm caused by their actions.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED: contact Dana Katz at 845-514-0239 or dkatz@fowinc.org for the application or download it here.
* Volunteers will be required to attend a one day training. The next training will be held Monday October 23rd, 2017 at Kingston Center of SUNY Ulster (KCSU) at 94 Mary’s Avenue, Room 104 from 9:30am – 4pm.
