Upcoming Events:
You're Invited to Maine Youth Court's 5th Annual Summit!
Tuesday, August 6th – Rhines Auditorium – Portland Public Library
*CLICK HERE TO REGISTER!*
Join us for a day of discussions and workshops about "Dismantling the School to Prison Pipeline." The goal of this year’s summit is for youth and adults to envision another way to address harm in our schools by balancing support and accountability.The morning is only for youth participants (lunch is provided for youth) but the afternoon is open to adult community partners.
Adult community partners are welcome to arrive any time between 1:00 to 1:30. We will be beginning the afternoon’s programming promptly at 1:30 and will conclude by 4:00. This is a chance for adult and youth participants to exchange their diverse perspectives and develop a deeper insight about how our schools and communities can work together to keep our students in school and out of the juvenile justice system.
Please email Julie at jolbrantz@maineyouthcourt.org with questions or if you want to volunteer at the event!
Volunteer Trainings 2019
What: Volunteering with MYC involves meeting twice a month for a few hours after school,
students may take a season off for extracurricular activities. Volunteers act as
facilitators and advocates for their peers and community when harm has
occurred through a restorative process. Our training aims to train youth volunteers in
restorative practices, juvenile justice and the interview skills needed to advocate.
