"I’m doing this because I
think it's the job of the com
munity to try to help these
kids," said Spencer Thompson
of Mecklenburg Court Volun
teers (MCV).
Thompson, 30. of 8901-D
Nations Ford Road, contacted
MCV after reading about the
program in a local daily news
paper. MCV is a volunteer
organization formed to reduce
the number of repeat criminal
offenders.
By involving interested citi
zens iji the criminal justice
•ysteiwj the organization
seeks to expand the effective
ness of professional court
counselors and probation offi
cers. Volunteers work on a
one-to-one basis with a young
offender.
"You have to keep re-assur
ing him that you're not the
‘bust man'," said Thompson.
He added that many youths
are fatherless or motherless
and have various problems.
Some have committed crimes
but are not hardened crimi
nals.
Thompson works with a 15
year-old Herbert Spaugh Ju
nior High School Student.
When he met the student, said
Puul Peel Names

are C. David Lohri, Robert K.
Bolen, Alton Wright, David J.
Davis, Richard A. Harris,
Lynn White, Howard L. Hug

sythe.
“Our division, which encom
passes the small businesses
has a goal of $20,400 and we re
confident of reaching this ear
ly in the campaign," said Mr.
Peel
Thompson, "My first experi
ence really scared me."
The volunteer thought his
client would be hard to handle
because of his Door record
Resorting to MVC training.
Thompson made friends with
his client. He found the young
man was more interested in
vocatjonaMramu^^hai^f*^
academic course school coun
selors had assigned him.
Thompson contacted school
officials and got them to
change his client's courses
That change in school rou
tine seemed to make his client
more at ease, Thompson said.
The volunteer pointed to this
example to show the useful
ness of the MCV voluntei •
program
Thompson, who was recent
ly married, has no children
He said that he is a voluntee
because of a sense of duty an !
because he enjoys helpin
people. He is employed as
