Community Service Work Crew

Diversion Program
Each year, more than 35,000 juvenile referrals are deferred to Diversion units throughout the state. Typically, these cases involve youth ages 8 to 18 who are alleged to have committed offenses such as shoplifting and other thefts, possession of alcohol, minor assaults, malicious mischief and trespassing.

Electronic Home Monitoring
