Faculty help youth offender program
Two Ohio Northern University faculty members are involved in a project that looks to offer second chances to troubled youths in Paulding County.
The Paulding County Juvenile Court has received two competitive grants totaling more than $193,000 from the Ohio Department of Youth Services.
Professor of Sociology Keith Durkin and Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice Tristin Kilgallon are providing consultation and quality assurance for the implementation of programs that are supported by the grants. The efforts began last August as part of a three-year endeavor.
Paulding County Probate and Juvenile Court Judge Michael Wehrkamp has spearheaded many of the efforts in the county, along with the county’s diversion officer, Elizabeth Zartman.
