County, Florida, herein called the "Applicant," after thorough
• consideration of the problem and available data, has hereby
determined that the project described below is in the best interests
of the general public:
The Youth Guidance Volunteer Program is de3i.gned
for children who are not yet classified as delinquent
but are on the way. It is hoped that by utilizing
the skills of a volunteer on a one-to-one basis, the
child's needs can be met, therefore, preventing the
child from having to go through with official court
action and receiving a court: record.
With the use of the Volunteer frog;ram the child's
needs can be met by a Volunteer, diverting; the child
from the Juvenile Court and Division of Youth Services
personnel, therefore freeing the Youth Counselor's '
time to provide more efficient counseling; to those I
children th:,t need his professionral skills; and
