The purpose of the Harnett County Juvenile Restitution and Community Service Program is to accept juveniles into the program who have been ordered to pay monetary restitution to a victim or perform symbolic community service. This program serves as a community-based Sanction 1 and 2 alternative to detention or youth development centers.
This program teaches juveniles accountability for their actions as well as serves as a deterrent for future criminal activity.
Juveniles are between the ages of 7 - 17 and are referred by Juvenile Court Counselor's Office, Juvenile Court, and School Resource Officers.
