Our Mission
To ensure
that children and their families who come within the jurisdiction of this Court
leave this system more capable of living safely, productively and
responsibly.
OUR PROGRAMS
COMMUNITY SERVICE LEARNING
PROGRAM
The Community Service Learning
Program is designed to provide opportunities for delinquent youth to gain
positive experiences through contribution of time and energy to our
community and to assist the youth in developing assets and skills that they
need to make better decisions.
Judge Thomas E. Heydinger initiated the program in 1995.
The program consists of the youth
completing Court ordered community service hours, attending 10 community
service classes, which meet weekly, and attendance by a parent at a 2-½
hour “It’s A Parent” class. It is
expected that the program will be completed in 10 weeks.
STUDY GROUP
The Study Group Program began in
January 1998 for children who are in the Court system and are having
academic or truancy problems, been suspended, or in need of academic
assistance. The Program is designed
to help participants achieve success in school, promote the importance of
education, and provide structured time for participants to do their
homework with supervision and tutoring assistance. Study Groups meet twice a week for 1-½
hours. The Court orders the number
of sessions that each participant needs to attend. The sessions are
supervised by a Certified Teacher with the assistance of an intern or
volunteer.
