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!

Help is especially needed Mon. & Tues. nights because of support groups that run at the same time.

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.

U.S. Volunteers only, please

Parents from refugee and immigrant families in the US want the best for their children and they work hard to provide their children with every opportunity to succeed. However, refugee and immigrant parents carry the extra stress of parenting in a new culture, while also navigating complex systems in a new country and language they might not feel confident in.

Please note that we do not work with volunteers who live outside of the U.S., as knowledge of local culture and resources are an important part of the role.

To best support parents, Catholic Charities has a series of parenting videos in refugee languages about topics that are important to parents from refugee and immigrant communities. These short, practical YouTube videos offer accessible parenting education in 10 languages. Our YouTube channel has over 2,600 subscribers who actively watch the content we release on parenting, updates to immigration law, and education.

How you can help

You can help by making culturally and linguistically appropriate videos by volunteering your critical Burmese language skills! We need volunteers to translate text (on PowerPoints or short scripts) and/or record voice over videos like this.

Check out our videos on Parent Teacher Conferences and Your Health Care Options to see what videos are like. The videos are approximately 3-7 minutes in English with 7 or fewer PowerPoint slides. Video text is usually short phrases related to daily life in the US accompanied by images. We create the PowerPoint content with simple scripts for ease of translation.

We can train you in our simple process to record short videos in your own home or you can come to our office to record. If needed, our Community Educator will even join you via zoom to record together for the first video(s) to help you get started. CC will edit the recordings (bloopers happen!) and post online.

Technology & Space

Time Commitment

Training

Volunteers will receive training before they begin on how to access materials. If recording, volunteers will learn how to record voice over PowerPoint videos using zoom, how to upload recordings to our shared Google Drive, and general best practices for recording.

The Impact

While refugee and immigrant parents are passionate about their children’s education, many believe they cannot effectively help their children with homework or in other areas because they grew up in a different educational system and/or struggle with English themselves. These videos allow parents to learn the skills they need to parent in the US on their own schedule without the added burden of transportation to a class or childcare. While some videos have Milwaukee specific content, most are general enough to support refugee and immigrant parents across the US.

All of our programs are free to our clients, and we couldn’t provide the level of service we do without the help of our wonderful volunteers. We believe the connections between our volunteers and program participants make our communities stronger and more vibrant.

The Four Lakes Group covers 9 counties in south central Wisconsin - Dane, Dodge, Jefferson, Rock, Green, Lafayette, Iowa, Sauk, and Columbia, and is part of the Wisconsin Chapter.

We hold elections every fall, but encourage anyone interested to contact us at any time. You do have to be a Sierra Club member to be on our board, but you can easily join if you are not.
