”These changes are not just about bricks and mortar,” Calhoun County Youth Center Director Tori Bendon said on ribbon cutting day. ”They are about people,” she said.
After a lengthy, $13 million renovation approved by the Calhoun County Board of Commissioners in 2022, the ribbon was cut on September 23, 2025.
In this episode of Inside Calhoun County, Director Bendon discusses the more purposeful and safer atmosphere gained in the expansion from nearly 16,000 to almost 30,000 square feet.
