We recently became a member of The Childrens Alliance and already can see the complexities of interagency work that they are doing as they advocate for detention center reopening for our justice involved youth who need secure supervision. Shouts out the Meck. County Sheriff's Office dept for coming forward with a plan that they believe will benefit the community. Watching these two discuss the nuances of care, dollars, facility administrative load, and more reminds me of my Leadership Charlotte cohort year (LC45) and exploring opportunities with varying perspectives. You really do leave these types of spaces with more questions than answers sometimes.
