Program provides option for Weinland Park youths in trouble with law                Fred Squillante | DISPATCH 

The Columbus Dispatch published a story on the front page of the Metro section about the Neighborhood Options for Youth (NOY) program, which is a program in which Directions for Youth and Families is partnering in the Weinland Park Collaborative with the Columbus Police and Franklin County Juvenile Court and its juvenile probation officers. 

 

NOY works with troubled youth in Weinland Park, but equally important is the approval last month of support for summer youth employment, summer camp, Freedom Schools, youth sports and the R.I.S.E. Youth Club. The Columbus Foundation, United Way of Central Ohio and Chase Bank are among the funders of the Weinland Park NOY project.   READ MORE >
