- Second, the Probation and Parole department is responsible to the community for the protection of persons and property from the individuals placed under the supervision of this department.
- Third, the Probation and Parole Department recognizes that as probation and parole officers we have responsibility to the probationer and parolee to render assistance, advice, and information in order to promote the restoration of the client to the community and to assure his adjustment to supervision.
Community Service
Drug Drop Box Located in the Courthouse Annex Lobby
As a service to the community we’ve placed a secure Drug Drop Box in the Juniata County Courthouse Annex Lobby.
It’s available Monday-Friday 8:00 A.M – 4:30 P.M. to accept your unwanted or expired medications.
Prescription and over-the-counter medications collected here will safely be kept out of the hands of our youth and others who might steal or abuse them. Collected drugs will be regularly disposed of in a safe and secure manner.
Please join us in saving our children and our environment by dropping off your out-dated, unused and unwanted medications today.
