Teen Court offers innovative, effective way to give youth a second chance

Sheboygan County Teen Court is a collaborative effort between Sheboygan County Circuit Court Judge Natasha Torry, the Sheboygan Area School District, and Health and Human Services Youth Justice, facilitated by Social Worker Lizzy Kroll. This is a Youth Justice alternative that aims to promote youth development and uses restorative justice practices as a response to youth behavior, as opposed to the traditional, punitive responses of receiving a citation or a law enforcement referral to Youth Justice.
