BREA
By year’s end, the Brea Community Center will be home to a drug aversion program for first-time juvenile offenders. The Youth and Family Resource Center is entering into a partnership with Community Service Programs--an Irvine nonprofit organization--and the Brea police to offer first-time juvenile drug offenders an option to the court system and a way out of the world of drugs.
Staff, space and money from a county grant are in place, Youth and Family Resource Center supervisor Judy Campos said. On Tuesday the City Council approved the three-way partnership, paid for completely by a county grant for community development.
