New Hampshire Juvenile Court Diversion Network

A 2nd chance for 1st offenders

The New Hampshire Juvenile Court Diversion Network is a coalition of over 30 programs dedicated to helping young offenders. Although the primary focus of diversion is to provide juvenile first offenders with an alternative to court, we also work with families to help prevent delinquency and provide services to youth who have already been through court.

Restorative justice

Better us than the cuffs!

Accountability and reparation are the hallmarks of juvenile court diversion. By following the spirit of Restorative Justice we involve the victim and the community in the justice process and make the offender accountable for repairing the harm he/she caused. These positive interactions, combined with education, can help offenders make positive and constructive choices in their lives.
