Led by Howard Circuit Court Judge Lynn Murray, these individuals signed an updated memorandum to provide education, treatment, and supervision to juveniles.

“This is to renew our strategy of systematic information sharing to identify youth who are at risk and then to provide appropriate services to them and their families,” said Murray. “We are dedicating ourselves to the purposes of intervention, prevention, and controlling unacceptable behaviors by the young people in our community.”
