Communities for a Better Tomorrow, our main community engagement project, aims to enhance four eastern counties’ efforts to keep troubled youth out of or prevent their further involvement in the juvenile justice system by strengthening community partnerships and providing advocacy and technical assistance. Visit the Communities for a Better Tomorrow website at www.communitiesforabettertomorrow.org for more information on the multi-county collaborative, which includes Halifax, Northampton, Bertie and Hertford counties.
