BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Multiple individuals took a step toward bettering themselves Wednesday night through a program offered by the Kern County Probation Department.
On June 25, the Kern County Probation Department celebrated graduates with a ceremony Wednesday night in east Bakersfield.
The guests of honor are those who successfully completed the department’s in-house program, which is anywhere from six months to a year. Organizers say the program gives people a second chance, by helping them change bad habits, learn valuable skills and ultimately realize personal growth.
