Williamson County has been awarded $308,728 by the Indigent Defense Commission to support the defense component of an innovative alternative to incarceration program for emerging adults. The supported program establishes a formal diversionary option to the criminal justice system for emerging adults charged with a felony offense and connects individuals with services through a localized, integrated program structured to support positive health and safety outcomes that reduce continued justice system involvement.  The Lone Star Justice Alliance was awarded the contract to administer this program. To date, the Lone Star Justice Alliance and its partners have secured $607,000 in donations so Williamson County can expand opportunities for young adults through the program. 

Several county offices have moved the new Georgetown Annex, 100 Wilco Way in Georgetown. The building is a two-story building with 60,000 square feet of space.

In addition, the building has a Justice of the Peace Courtroom, multiple meeting and conference rooms, and a training/teaching space for AgriLife Extension.
