Courthouse Fees Waived for Norwalk's Family Intervention Programs
Supervisor
Don Knabe today announced that the Board of Supervisors waived the
court fees for a hearing room at the Southeast Norwalk Superior
Court for the City of Norwalk’s Family Intervention Program.
The Family Intervention Team is a service provided by the City of
Norwalk that offers families, schools, and youth with needed
guidance and intervention to address the juvenile’s harmful
behavior. During the hearings, the youth is given firm consequences
for their continued adverse behavior and the intervention is
continued through school visits, home visits, and more hearings as
needed.
“The City of Norwalk is providing a valuable service for these
children and the program has great results” said Knabe. “Holding
these hearings in the courthouse has a very strong impact on the
minors and their parents because it shows them the seriousness of
their behavior.
These hearings are scheduled to take place every Thursday from
1:00pm to 4:00pm in Hearing Room 104-D at the Southeast Norwalk
Superior Court beginning on June 30, 2006 through July 1, 2007.
