Lewis County Juvenile Court (LCJC) Day Reporting/ Work Crew/ Community Service/ Job Skills Program
WHAT IS LCJC DAY REPORTING/ WORK CREW/COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAM?
The Lewis County Day Reporting/ Work Crew Program is an alternative sanction to full-time incarceration in the juvenile detention facility. Youth sentenced to serve time in the detention center, and are deemed appropriate, may be given the opportunity to serve a portion of their sentence in the Day Reporting Program. It also provides youth on probation, At Risk-Youth, and participants in the Diversion Program, the opportunity to work off community service hours and fines, sanctioned by the court.
Lewis County Juvenile Court has been offering the Day Reporting / Community Service/ Work Crew program for 29 years. Since 1980, Lewis County Juvenile Court has been active in many of Lewis County’s communities, offering a variety of services such as ground work, brush cutting, trail and street cleanup, and painting. Often times, working hand-in-hand with community based efforts.
Youth who successfully complete the program will be given credit toward their sentence, fines, and community service hours.
