One of the issues facing our community is the growing trend of youth offenders appearing in Juvenile Court. There are many at-risk youth that are heading toward the criminal court system if intervention is not made. A contributing factor to this problem is the fact that, with the exception of sports, there are not very many activities for youth - outside of school. Even at that, participating in school sports can be expensive which may discourage some youth from becoming involved.
