Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham visits CORA

On Friday June 6th CORA Services hosted a visit by Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham. DA Abraham got to visit each of our service areas, meet staff and get a more complete understanding of the scope and range of agency programs. She was of course very appreciative of those units that serve to divert youth from entering the juvenile justice system. She invited CORA to apply for a grant from her own foundation, Urban Genesis for possible support. In photo, from left are Dr. Anthony Chunn, DA Lynne Abraham, Speaker of the PA House Dennis O'Brien and Jim Harron. During the visit by the District Attorney, CORA board member and Speaker of the PA House, Dennis O'Brien stopped by as well.
