Abstract

The purpose of this report is to provide the Oakridge Municipal Court staff with the necessary information to administer the Oakridge Municipal Court Community Service Program and maintain it over time. This report includes steps, guidelines, and forms that the Court staff could use to administer the program in partnership with agencies and work with defendants during their service. The program steps are as follows: • The judge will present defendants with the option to complete volunteer work for either a nonprofit or public agency as an alternative to paying a fine. • The judge will provide the defendant with an agreement form to be eligible for the Community Service Program and a timesheet to track their volunteer hours. • The defendant will be presented with a list of currently eligible partners with the partner’s preferred contact information. • Organizations will supervise defendants during community service and sign off on the timesheet brought by the defendant. • The defendant will report back to the court and deliver the timesheet with their supervisor’s signature once they have completed their hours.
