NORTH COUNTY TEEN COURT EXECUTIVE BOARD
The North County Teen Court is a NON-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION as well as a 501(c)(3) administered by an Executive Board made up of officials and volunteers from partnering communities.
NCTC would not be possible without the dedication of our volunteers and the participation of our local Police Departments!!!
The Executive Board meets twice a year to discuss policy and procedures regarding Teen Court operations and additionally on an "as need" basis. The Board is assisted by a Citizens Advisory Board also made up of community officials and citizen volunteers.
