Centre County Alternatives in Community Justice provides alternatives to traditional court process of juvenile offenders through the Centre County Youth Aid Panel, which is a group of trained community volunteers who oversee the completion of alternative plans by youth who are referred by the coutrys, law enforcement, & other concerned agencies.
Volunteers meet as a group monthly for intake meetings and check-in meetings with youth involved in the program. Volunteers also connect weekly with one or two youth involved in the program.
Child Abuse Clearance and PA Records checks are both required.
