Hart Youth Development Resource Association or HYDRA is a government funded program in Hart County, Ga. HYDRA gives the youth of Hart County an outlet for positive activities and educational growth.
There are no charges for the services that HYDRA offers they offer recreational activities like Tae Kwan Do, mentoring, and various after school programs to help you move in the right direction.
HYDRA was one of several programs in Hart County that receive severe budget cuts after being deemed a non-core county function.
The high school in Hart County has seen an increase in graduation rates due to an investment in graduation coaches. That says to me that an investment in the youth at an even younger level will have even greater reprecussions for the future of Hart County youth.
The website states that it runs monday thru friday from 10am-6pm with the exception of Wednesday, but the website has not be recently updated and those hours are probably significantly shorter.
Police and Courts are important and budgets are small. How do these groups cope with less funds?

Would be interesting to pay a visit to HYDRA and talk to some young participants. I wonder how budget cuts are manifest to them and what message they take from this.
