Teen Court

Teen Court offers an alternative sanction in the form of a diversion program, for first time juvenile offenders, in lieu of formal delinquency proceedings. This court consists of a volunteer bench officer, a court coordinator (either a Deputy Probation Officer or a Reserve DPO), and a jury composed of six peers. The Probation Department collaborates with the court, other law enforcement agencies, schools, attorneys, and community-based organizations in several Teen Courts countywide.
