Welcome
The Weld County Juvenile Assessment Center (JAC) is a
non-profit, community based service organization which provides coordinated,
multi-agency services for youth struggling with life issues, engaged in at-risk
behavior or violating community standards or laws.
Through prevention and intervention strategies, comprehensive assessments,
case management and coordinated access to services, youth (and their families)
are offered positive alternatives for growth and support.
The JAC and our efforts to work with youth and families are the result of
collaboration with schools, municipalities, law enforcement, courts and
youth/family service providers throughout
There is no cost for our services. When
a youth comes to the Assessment Center, whether due to
police contact, a referral from their school or simply a concerned
parent, a needs assessment is done to determine any problematic issues
and they are provided with information about local services in their
community
that will serve them best. JAC staff will follow up with the youth and family to provide additional support as it is needed.
