New Business
The coordinator stated she was preparing to begin some of the self-
enhancement classes this fall. She also discussed the enforcement process of
who would be mandated to take the classes.
The members of the board said the classes were a personal desire of the
previous coordinator because she felt she was not using her counseling skills
and not a mandate from them. The board agreed that the classes is just another
option for community service. However, they all felt that doing community
service should be the first choice if it was available. If not, then the teen could
take a class to fulfill his judgement.
The coordinator has and is continually locating new and innovative placements
for the teen that need to do community service.
The coordinator discussed teen court donating gifts or food for the holidays
which is a form of community service. The teens would only be allowed to
account for 30% of their community service hours this way. All present agreed.
The coordinator is to look for the by-laws of Teen Court and its Advisory Board.
