11 people laid off at Mahoning Co. Juvenile Justice Center

YOUNGSTOWN — The layoff of 11 workers from the Mahoning County Juvenile Justice Center means longer waits for counseling appointments, reduced services for youth in detention and the absence of a receptionist, said Judge Theresa Dellick of the juvenile court.

“So long as we remain in an economic crisis, these positions will not be filled,” the judge said, adding that she considers the layoffs permanent.
