Reporting Center
The
Day Reporting Center is a program funded by the Illinois Department of Human Services
to intervene in the delinquent behaviors of young people who are on probation
with the local Juvenile Court.
The
program provides daily support, tutoring, career exploration, job skill development,
recreation, and counseling and case management.
The program is directed at assisting young offenders to break patterns
of delinquent behavior and to replace them with life competencies.
All
participants may be male or female, 12 to 17 years of age, and are court ordered
to attend the programs. Open enrollment
allows participants to join at any time.
The
typical programs runs 26 weeks, from 3:30 PM TO 7:30 PM Monday through Friday and is
in session during ordinary school breaks for the holidays and during the summer.
