Juvenile Probation Resources
The Harris County Public Library created the Harris County Juvenile Probation Department Resource Page as a place for teens and youth affected by the Harris County Juvenile Probation Department. These resources include alternative high schools that specialize in helping formerly adjudicated youth find a supportive environment to complete their education, library services designed for former HCJPD residents, and organizations that provide additional resources for formerly adjudicated teens and youth.
Alternative High Schools
Alternative Schools require approval from your zoned school, but they can create an opportunity for former HCJPD residents to attend schools that focuses on their academic and career goals for high school and beyond.
