The goal of the Juvenile Division is to
effectively, efficiently, and equitably administer justice in all matters
brought before it. Due process, responsible administration of the law, humane
consideration and social awareness are imperative. The reasonable and
responsible balance of society's just demands and the individual's rights are
implicit.
Simply put, the goal of the Court is to ensure
that the children and people who come before it receive the kind of care,
protection, guidance, and treatment that will serve the best interest of the
community and the best welfare of the child. The judges and administrative staff
have concern not only for resolving cases in court but also for improving family
life, personal relationships, and education and social services for families
with the community. With this in mind the Juvenile Division proceeds with the
confidence to achieve its goals; realizing that it is not within human power to
achieve total success, but nonetheless committed to its ideal.
