We continue to provide our program virtually due to the covid 19 pandemic.

NEW PROGRAM: VIRTUAL YOUTH COURT SUPPORT

Due to the ongoing global pandemic and despite many businesses being open, some remain closed and are operating virtually—this is the case for youth who are scheduled to appear before the Court.

Youth Court now takes place over Zoom, either by phone or by video chat—every second Monday. Having worked with youth during the COVID-19 shutdown, DYSS recognized the gap between our youth and access to or understanding of technology. The program to open to ALL youth who must appear before the Court a space with a support person, a phone or computer to connect with the Court over Zoom. The support person is also able to help with date tracking and reminders.

What we offer:

→ A safe space to appear in virtual youth court
→ Computer and a staff member to help use Zoom
→ Help with tracking your court dates and any other information you might need
→ Close to Downtown
