Explanation:
Wat zitten zoeken via Google. HBT is een organisatie die de mindere wijken van Los Angeles opleukt om zodoende de boel een beetje leefbaar te maken.
Dus misschien worden gestraften ingezet om voor HBT klusjes te verrichten (zoiets als 'Community service', bij ons geregeld via HALT).
Ik kan er natuurlijk ook helemaal naast zitten...

Explanation:
De afkorting is nogal breed. Het eerste antwoord is net zo geldig, maar zonder de context is het nogal moeilijk te zeggen waar het precies om gaat.
Dus hier gewoon enekele mogelijkheden meer.
Succes
