Juvenile Division

Juvenile Probation Officers stationed at the courthouse are responsible for supervising youth who have been placed on formal probation supervision through the Juvenile Court. In addition to regular supervision, certain officers may also supervise youth as part of a specialty caseload such as sexually maladaptive youth, truants, expecting or teen parents, and those requiring a higher level of supervision through  ICAP (Intensive Comprehensive Action Program).

All juvenile related fees can be paid at the Clerk's Office located on the 2nd floor of the Courthouse.
