Capital Area Teen Court has been helping youth with second chances since the 1990s. Our program would not be nearly as successful without the support from our community. You can find the 12 Community Service sites we work with around Wake and Durham counties under the ‘Community Service Worksites‘, but Capital Area Teen Court also works alongside the following Juvenile Crime Prevention Council (JCPC) community-based youth programs:
