Operation PAR is a non-profit organization that is requesting state appropriation for the continued operation of the PAR Adolescent Intervention Center (PAIC) in Pasco County. There is a documented need for PAIC services in the Pasco County community based on the 25% increase of juvenile justice delinquency referrals in 2001 compared to 2000, according to DJJ Judicial Circuit 6. Operation PAR is proposing measurable outcomes of PAIC services as mandated by the Department of Children & Families, Suncoast Region and Department of Juvenile Justice. The project has tangible community support and the endorsement of numerous Pasco County agencies. Operation PAR has identified its local matching fund requirements as listed below. |
