The Neighborhood Conference Committee (NCC) of Williamson County consists of local citizens in the community providing services to students who are first-time truant offenders.

The student and their family are referred to NCC by the local school district. The family meets with a panel of volunteers to establish the root of the truancy problem. Together the student, family, and the NCC panel develop a positive action plan.
