YOUTH PROGRAMS – The Youth Programs carried out in the Counties have been exciting. We want to provide opportunities for children who may not have them otherwise. We were able to obtain a discounted family pass for one year with the Louisville Zoo. 70 families took advantage of the opportunity. 10 families swim passes or lessons were also provided.

Thank you to all the staff for their hard work with the various programs operated by Community Services.
