Leaders came together to discuss improvements to the way in which we use communal resources to address crime in the community.
The Justice Reinvestment Initiative from the Executive Branch and the Leading Change project from the Judicial Branch both seek to maximize use of resources to ensure the safety of our communities through means that bear tangible results. The group discussed ways to develop critical community partnerships and further our shared goals and objectives. This was a review of Atchison and Holt County. Atchison County had numerous stakeholders at the table for this project.
There being no further business to come before the commission, the commission adjourned.
