9 to lose jobs at Berks County Youth Center

From the Reading Eagle (08/11/10):

Nine people will lose their jobs at the Berks County Youth Center at the end of the week when a program designed to help juvenile offenders become responsible, law-abiding adults is discontinued.

The county commissioners said the decision to end the Priorities Responsibilities Enhancement Program, or PREP, will save taxpayers money by eliminating 13 positions. Some positions were vacant, and some have been changed.
