Immediate Intervention Program

The Immediate Intervention Program is an alternative to court for juveniles arrested for the first time on a non-violent misdemeanor offense.  The juvenile is referred to the program by a juvenile intake officer following the completion of an intake and POSIT assessment.  The juvenile and parents/guardians sign a contract agreeing to cooperate with program rules and participate in services and referrals of the program.  Among other requirements, the juvenile must report to the supervision officer, complete community service hours, comply with a curfew, comply with referral programs, write an apology letter,  and pay restitution, if applicable, in order to complete the program successfully.  A discharge summary is completed by the immediate intervention officer, which details success or failure of the program by the juvenile.  It also includes any recommended follow-up services.
