SCRANTON -- Lackawanna County released the terms of an agreement that ended a strike by the county workers who handle child abuse cases.

The unionized employees at the Office of Youth and Family Services hit the picket lines earlier this month.

At a news conference Friday, the county commissioners say the new contract agreement calls for pay hikes, but some workers will have to pay more for healthcare.

The new contract will last until the end of 2016.
