§ 235 Juvenile Delinquency Prevention Councils

• •The juvenile court and probation department can create or help groups that work to stop kids from getting into trouble.
• •These groups can also work on making the community better for kids, like improving parks, health, and other things that help kids stay out of trouble.
• •The main goal is to keep kids from doing bad things by making their lives and community better.

A town has a lot of kids skipping school and getting into fights.

The juvenile court and probation department can team up with local groups to create after-school programs, like sports or art classes, to keep kids busy and out of trouble. They can also work on making parks safer and healthier for kids to play in.
