A Visit from Judge Holly Veal

Thank you to Judge Holly Veal for speaking with our club during Monday’s luncheon. 
Serving as a Civil & Criminal Judge with Henry County Superior Court, Judge Veal is widely known for her honesty, fairness, and sound judgment. The insights she shared about the court system and especially Drug Court were eye opening.  To hear that since 2018 the court is experiencing an “avalanche” of Mental Heath cases is disheartening but there is hope for restorative defendants due to programs that work to treat the Trauma that caused the behavior or the addiction.  Judge Veal is passionate about this work and says it is a good investment and use of tax payer money.  This work often helps reunite families, rehabilitates and restores defendants to productive citizens.  Thank you Judge Veal for the passion you have for your job and for the work you do to improve our community..
