Welcome from the Executive Director
Recognizing the challenges we are facing as a nation and as juvenile justice professionals, the PbS team thanks you for continuing the work to help young people involved in our facilities and programs. We've heard stories from across the country of illnesses and loss of life as well as creativity and joy. Please keep sharing - it helps all of us feel connected and supported. Thank you also for making the time to connect with us for our first ever virtual training. One advantage of holding the training virtually is we can include more of your team members so please pass long the information and links. The sessions will be live except for the Annual Executive Director's Report, which will be available for viewing when convenient for you. It's a unique time for us to set the course for the future and we'd like to share our vision for PbS with you.
