Williamson County Juvenile Services will receive a $153,221 grant from the Office of the Governor to support its Transformative Justice program, which works with young adults involved in the criminal justice system.
Wilco applied for the grant in February. County commissioners accepted the grant during their October 20 meeting and renewed contracts for two attorneys serving the program.
