Dogwood supports the law enforcement-assisted Diversion Pilot Program in Henderson County as it works to lessen juvenile justice involvement as a means of reducing risk factors related to substance use disorder. The Hope Coalition is partnering with the Henderson County Sheriff’s Department and the district attorney’s office to deliver the program. In the program, participants identify their strengths, define goals and learn skills to prevent the recurrence of involvement in the justice system as well as connect with the appropriate resources. Services include a drug and alcohol education program and a juvenile alternatives program that focuses on early intervention for at-risk youth.
