Waukesha County operates a Teen Court- an alternate justice program for youth offenders based on the restorative justice model. In this court, teens who have committed offenses plead guilty, and then present their case to a jury of their peers. Other teens take on the role of prosecutor, defender, clerk of courts, jury foreman, and jury. The jury decides the consequences. We have been operating this program for over 10 years with a lot of success. The teens themselves are less likely to reoffend, they have a great opportunity for education, and they learn about the consequences of their actions.

We are seeking teen volunteers to be part of our jury. Teens will listen to testimony and, along with the entire jury, help determine the consequence.

All courts are held Thursdays evenings, typically the second and fourth of every month, or only the second Thursday of the month in June, July and August. Volunteer jurors are asked to commit to 1-2 shifts per month.

This is a great way for teens to learn about the justice system, promote positive change in their community, and meet like-minded people. Contact us today for more information!

Are you passionate about helping the next generation of youth? Have you ever experienced a situation where a youth or family member committed an offense against you or your family? The impact of that offense is likely still fresh on your mind- whether it led to physical, emotional, mental, financial, or more. Examples of this may include a teen who stole from you, a teen who drove drunk and hurt or possibly killed a loved one, or a teen who bullied you. If so, would you consider sharing your trauma and the impact that that teen had on you and may continue to have on you? Your story has the power to transform lives.

Youth Empowerment and Accountability is a Waukesha County Program that provides comprehensive support to youth referred by the criminal justice system. Our dedicated social workers work with these youth for over 6-7 weeks, teaching them accountability, victim empathy/ awareness, and empowerment to make better life choices. The goal is that these youth never interact with the criminal justice system again. Your role as a volunteer speaker is integral to this mission.

Youth in this program often need help connecting actions with consequences and recognizing the impact of their actions on real people. We have found that when these youth meet, listen to, and ask questions of people who have crimes committed against them, they understand accountability and personal responsibility much more.

Volunteers are asked to commit to speaking 2-4 times per year- sharing their experience, their story, their truth, and the impact it has had on their lives, both in the short-term and the long-term. Social Workers lead the group on Wednesday evenings from 5:30 - 7:30 pm. The speaking months for 2025 are January, April, July, and October, with some flexibility on the date the volunteer speaks within that month. Volunteers address a group of 3-10 youth and their parents for approximately 30 minutes.

Volunteer speakers should be prepared to answer questions about their experience, have a passion for working with and supporting positive change in youth, demonstrate maturity and dependability, and be comfortable effectively working with diverse populations. Rest assured, we provide comprehensive support and guidance to all our volunteers, ensuring you feel confident in your role.

Take advantage of this chance to make a difference. Contact us today to learn how you can start sharing your story with the next generation.

Approximately 3-10 youth and their parents listen to your story and ask questions. This group is geared towards restorative justice and helping youth understand how their actions impact victims and themselves. Volunteer speakers are asked to speak quarterly, or four times per year. Speaking engagements take place weekday evenings, between 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm. Volunteers should have a passion and patience for helping youth understand their decisions. Volunteers should also be comfortable speaking and connecting with diverse populations and be able to present their story in an appropriate way that is suitable and for youth. All groups are faciliated by social workers.

Please connect with us for more information!
