LCCDRJP is an non-profit , privately-funded agency based in Hyde Park, Vermont, now in its 29th year of serving the Lamoille Valley region.  While the agency's longstanding program, Court Diversion, continues to be highly successful and widely recognized, in the last six years the agency has grown in unprecedented ways - expanding prevention and early intervention programs to meet a growing need in this region.

With an emphasis on restorative justice principles and practices, LCCDRJP has firmly established itself as an important resource in this region for youth, adults, families, schools, agencies and communities.
