Additional goals would be service to adjudicated individuals, parent educa- tion and the establishment of a core of some 40 volunteers to serve with the Bureau. A Board of Directors would be established with representation from each village and school district involved plus the Welfare Department and students. Location of the Bureau is to be determined by the Board of Direc- tors, with rent budgeted at $300.00/month. Mr. Rau also stated that approval or disapproval of the proposal is expect- ed in mid-March or April, with operation beginning July 1, 1976.

Some direct quotes from the proposal to nudge your thinking: "The lack of alternatives, at the local level, means that the juvenile, who continues to have contact, will eventually be petitioned to court and the matter of diversion taken away from the local community."
