Teen Courts

“Justice for Teens by Teens”

Teen Courts are a community-based, juvenile intervention/prevention programs that offer an alternative to the juvenile justice system. These programs are generally for juvenile offenders who commit first-time, nonviolent, misdemeanor offenses or ordinance violations. Unlike the traditional justice system, Teen Court operates under the Restorative Justice Principles, which gives those impacted by crime the chance to be directly involved in the justice process. By harnessing the power of positive peer pressure, each juvenile offender is held accountable by his or her peers and given the opportunity to repair any harm caused to the community.
