A Positive Path for Youth, A Second Chance for Families
The Evening Reporting Center (ERC) offers an Alternative to Detention (ATD) and a Pre-Trial Diversion Program for youth, ages 13-17. We provide supervision, monitoring, and delinquency prevention services tailored to meet the needs of each young person we serve. Our approach is community-based, youth-focused, and success-driven—aiming to support both the youth and their families every step of the way.
Alternative to Detention (ATD)
This program serves as a condition of release from detention, offering youth the opportunity to engage in supervised, face-to-face programming that includes both monitoring and interventions.
How to Enroll:
Youth or parents can request referral to the ERC by speaking with their Attorney, Judge, or Assistant District Attorney during court hearings.
Pre-Trial Diversion Program
For youth involved in incidents that do not result in detainment, the diversion program provides an opportunity to resolve the case without formal charges.
How to Enroll:
During a law enforcement incident that does not result in detainment, ask for a referral.
Alternatively, reach out to the Juvenile Sector of the District Attorney’s Office after a file number has been created to request intervention services.
Note: Felony offenses are not eligible for this program.
What We Offer:
- Individualized Monitoring and Supervision
- Intervention Services
- Delinquency Prevention Education
- Support and Guidance for Families
Successful completion of the Pre-File Diversion program can lead to case file dissolution, providing youth with a clean slate to move forward, a true second chance..
