Reports - Early May

Hello Everyone!

Well, here we are... It's early May 2007 and the WV TEEN COURT ASSOCIATION is nearly a year old. There have been lots of community groups that have expressed an interest in getting Teen Court started and I think that we're on track in a few counties across the state.

That said, I need you all to make replies and update your progress to this blog. Please, if you have not done so, send me the most up to date information that you can because I have to report it back to our funder. In addition, we now have a Teen Court Advisory Committee on the state level that is going to help move the group forward. This, in turn, should help create a bridge between Judges, Probation and community groups.

Let me know if you can't blog in and, if not, please send me your report no later than May 10th.

I need to know the following...

How has your Teen Court initiative progressed in the past six months.

Have you collected your partners?

Have you started collecting funds at the county level?

Have you started collecting funds at the local municipality level?

Have you recruited your youth?

Have you started training?

When do you expect to start Teen Court?

What have been your major hurdles in this process?

What could have helped?

What WOULD help from here on out?

What level of support do you need at this time?

What would you like from the state Association?



Best of luck to you all and I expect to hear great things in the months ahead!

Welcome!

Hello Everyone!

This blog is very simple. To those that may be new to blogging (like I am), this will be something simple and easy to use. It will be a way that we can share stories, roadblocks, pitfalls and general information about building your Teen Court program. Whether you have an existing Teen Court or if you are simply starting a new TC in your community, this is a good place to share your story. You can share statistics, how your TC development is going, how many cases you have (expect to have), or whatever. This is your blog and we want you to use it to the best that you can.

So, with that... Start blogging.

Please tell us your name, coalition, county and other information that you want.

We look forward to hearing how Teen Court are going for you!!!
