Greenpoint Youth Court

Greenpoint Youth Court Join us in bringing restorative justice to North Brooklyn and beyond!

The Court holds young people accountable for their actions by requiring them to restore their community. Respondents admit responsibility for their actions, and a jury of their peers imposes sanctions that emphasize accountability, repairing harm done to the community, and providing respondents with meaningful activities. Sanctions include community service, letters of apology, essays or skill building workshops on various topics such as conflict resolution and goal setting.

We were thrilled to be a part of this wonderful beautification project!

Officers from 120th Precinct in Staten Island joined with the Staten Island Youth Justice Center and Greenpoint Youth Court on September 12 for a tree planting ceremony in honor of first responders who were lost on 9/11. The tree was added to a garden in front of the precinct that was built during a restoration project earlier in May by the youth and officers. The justice center also presented a certificate of recognition to the members of the precinct for their efforts in helping to beautify the St. George area.
