Community Service Sentencing
Programs
Community Service Sentencing
provides courts, probation departments, and judicial officials
with a viable option of community service as an alternative to
fines and incarceration for adults and youth who are convicted
of an infraction, misdemeanor, or felony. It enables clients to
make restitution to the communities they have wronged, and
provides community agencies with much needed volunteer labor. We
offer three Community Service Sentencing programs:
-
Court Referred Service
is a
collaboration with LA Superior Court that matches clients to
nonprofit agencies and community needs to enable them to
complete their community service sentencing.

actions and an understanding of the consequences of breaking
the law
