Our programs include Crossroads (delinquency intervention), Court Appointed Special Advocates or "CASA" (adult volunteers who speak in court for the best interests of abused and neglected children), Families In Need of Services or "FINS" (intervention for pre-delinquent or ungovernable behavior), Truancy Assessment and Service Center or "TASC" (early truancy intervention), and Options (outpatient adolescent substance abuse treatment).
