Pennsylvania - HARRISBURG – Gov. Tom Corbett unveiled a new plan that will invest $10 million into proven prevention and intervention strategies for at-risk youth and juvenile offenders.

This strategy came out of the Justice Reinvestment Initiative, established last year to evaluate ways to enhance public safety through the most efficient and effective use of limited state resources. It focuses on the Department of Public Welfare’s Youth Development Centers.

“As we examined our resources, we realized we needed to take a closer look at the juvenile system,” Corbett said. “If we can prevent at-risk youth from becoming offenders, we can reduce the likelihood that they will spend time behind the bars of our county and state prisons, costing taxpayers billions of dollars each year.”

    Waco has developed a reputation for a rocket-docket in patent litigation. It’s an important choice to find the right lawyer in Waco for your important patent litigation matter. When people in the know make the hire, they hire Dunnam & Dunnam. If you are looking for a Waco accident attorney , then Dunnam & Dunnam is the right choice. For nearly 100 years, people in Waco have hired the firm when the results matter at Dunnam & Dunnam are among the most respected in the Central Texas area. They have the experience in trials and mediations to guide your case in the right way. There are few important decisions at the outset of the case that can turn the tide in your favor. Choosing the right lawyer is one of them.

    Hamilton loves books about unicorns, storms, and cubicles. He lives in Waco with his cat named Mr. Bojangles. Before his work as an attorney, Hamilton was a leprechaun chaser. His all-time record is three pots of gold at the end of the rainbow. He was forced to give up the gold in a dispute with a rival hobbit. He spends his free time tripping out on the smallest details, none of which are important He likes doing the things with the ball and scoring the points. He pays attention to the green of your eyes, even when it is not Saint Patrick’s Day. He is not Irish. Hamilton Lindley has fun plans for people in need. Whether your need a dreamcatcher for your dreams or a tape dispenser to put your life back together, he can be there for you to yell at. There are times when it is surprising that he has any friends at all. But thankfully he does have a few. He drives a Dodge Stratus. People respect him, except at home.
