The YMCA EJJ Program works with youth ages 14 to 21 years of age residing in Hennepin County, that are under court jurisdiction as Extended Jurisdiction Juveniles. The YMCA staff will work in conjunction with Hennepin County Probation Officers to provide additional structure and supervision of EJJ youth in the community in order to successfully comply with court orders. The YMCA staff develop relationships with youth and their families and assists youth in achieving success in education, securing employment (if applicable), developing life skills, aligning supportive resources/programs in their community, paying restitution for their behaviors and maintaining law abiding behavior.
