Lundberg returns to Calhoun County as juvenile court officer

Not too long ago, Emilea Lundberg found a note at her office in the Calhoun County Courthouse.
The note was written by the dad of a girl Lundberg had worked with in her capacity as a juvenile court officer. The girl had turned her life around, the note said, and had attended college.
Those are the kinds of notes Lundberg, who has worked as a juvenile court officer for more than 20 years, treasures.
Lundberg was studying education at Iowa State University, nearly ready to graduate, when she met a probation officer, who started telling stories about his line of work.
