Teen Court

Teen Court

The Arvada Teen Court Program provides an opportunity for first-time offenders between the ages of 12 and 17 to be sentenced by a jury of their peers, rather than by an adult judge. The defendants, attorneys, and jurors are all teens.


Teen Court is looking for volunteers to serve as
jurors, bailiffs, and attorneys!

Here are some questions for you to ask yourself...
Do I like to argue?
Am I interested in law?
Can I listen carefully and then deliberate based on the evidence?
Do I need to improve my public speaking skills?
Do I need to complete community service?
Could my resume, or college application use a boost?

If you answered YES! to any of the above questions, this is the program for you. Read further to learn more about this program and its opportunities!
