Scholarship Fund Donations
Since the implementation of our Teen Court program, scholarships have been funded primarily by the City. Because the participation of this funding entity is decided year by year, Teen Court needs financial support from other sources in order to insure its uninterrupted ability to award scholarships to deserving teen volunteers.
Please take this opportunity to support the North Richland Hills Teen Court program. Your donations will make a difference for teens who have dedicated their volunteerism through our program and will assist in furthering their education beyond High School. The education process and accomplishments of the NRH Teen Court Program are made possible by teens who have volunteered their time through our program and participated over the years for countless hours in various roles of the Court. The Teen Court Advisory Board acknowledges their hard work and through a selection process awards scholarships to qualified graduating seniors.
The North Richland Hills Teen Court benefits both youth and community by providing a place to get volunteer hours while learning about judicial system, as well as providing alternative methods of adjudicating juvenile offenders. Volunteer teens participate in all areas of the Court in assisting with administering sentences to teens whose cases are before the court. Teen Offenders are held responsible for their behavior while giving them the opportunity to participate in and become knowledgeable about the judicial system. Upon successful completion of the program, offender's cases are dismissed and do not appear on their permanent records.
Teen Court alleviates the strain on the regular court system, besides giving juvenile offenders a second chance. The program also provides youths in the area a chance to participate in the judicial process through the volunteer program. We are confident that you will agree that program like this demonstrate that we are each helping the Teens in our community move in the right direction.
Thank you for considering giving the NRH Teen Court Scholarship Program your support.
