The Juvenile Conference Committee (JCC) is seeking committed volunteers to serve on it's Lakeland board. The Lakeland JCC is comprised of the towns of Haskell, Pompton Lakes, Ringwood, Wanaque and Bloomingdale. It meets every 1st Tuesday of each month at 7:30pm when cases are scheduled.
The JCC hears matters involving juveniles charged with minor offenses. These cases are diverted to a local JCC that acts as a community-based arm of the court. The JCC considers the complaint and other information presented and makes a recommendation to the court for a resolution that aids in the juvenile's rehabilitation.
JCC members are generally assigned to serve in the municipality which they live. However, a volunteer may serve in other municipalities. This opportunity is open to both adults and students (16 and over).
