Directions to Event |

WHAT:
Criminal
Justice Director Vaughn L. McKoy will
be the keynote speaker at recognition
ceremony for at least 15 juvenile offenders
completing the third class of the Paterson
Village Initiative Job Training Program.
The job training component of the Village
Initiative provides at-risk, court-involved
youth with 15 weeks of hands-on vocational
training and job readiness skills, along
with GED preparation.
The nationally recognized Village Initiative
is part of the Attorney General’s
“Gangs, Guns & Drugs”
strategy and is coordinated by the Division
of Criminal Justice. The collaborative
effort between the Passaic County Prosecutor’s
Office, Paterson Police Department, the
Passaic County Superior Court, juvenile
probation and parole officers addresses
the needs of juvenile offenders in the
city of Paterson. The Initiative includes
home visits, curfew checks, and monitoring
the activities of juvenile probationers
during non-traditional hours. The program
mobilizes the Paterson community to ensure
that juveniles and their families have
access to needed assistance. Since the
inception of the Village Initiative, violations
of probation have also been more than
cut in half.
