Vilas County Youth in Governance Programs
Teen Court in Vilas County held 33 sessions in 2007. Four trained High School youth serve on the panel each month and create sanctions to hold their peers accountable. 17 offendors successfully completed their sanctions, including 141 hourse of community service, and none re-offended.
Three high school youth participate in the VILAS Vision program, a formerly all-adult leadership development program. They will participate in the group community service project and help with the youth issues training.
