On Thursday, June 15, 2023, Dependency Drug Court, Early Childhood Court and Juvenile Drug Court partnered with Delinquency and Dependency courts to host a lunch and learn presentation with Guy A. Wheeler as their guest speaker. Wheeler, formerly the Assistant Director of Community Control with the BSO Office of Lauderhill, is known for his expertise in rehabilitation with the forming of the Guy Wheeler Group, PA (DBA) and the Justice for Life Institute (GAWG).
The presentation titled “The Absent Parent/Father and How it Impacts Youth” discussed how youth are affected by the absence of parental figures and how to address their trauma.
