Dear Fellow Citizens:

I am pleased to present to you Clayton County Juvenile Court's Report for 2009 via our county Web site. We believe that the citizens of Clayton County are entitled to be informed about the functioning of their Juvenile Court and trust you will find this report useful and informative.

The year 2009 was a significant one for our court. We continue to implement changes recommended by management consultants funded by Governor's Office for Children and Families.

As you will note from the charts contained in this report, the workload of the Juvenile Court has continued to increase over the last several years but we are hopeful that, with the support of the Board of Commissioners as well as internal operational changes, we will be able to reverse the current trend.

We are certainly appreciative of the cooperation we received from many other agencies, including the Clayton County Sheriff's Office, Clayton County District Attorney's Office, Clayton County Police Department, Board of Education and Board of Commissioners as well as the municipal law enforcement agencies within the county. We also continue to maintain a strong working relationship with the Clayton County Department of Family and Children Services.

Our efforts remain focused on public safety, holding youth accountable for their behavior, as well as services to victims.

Sincerely,

K. Van Banke, Chief Judge

"We envision a nation of strong and stable families, where every child has an equal opportunity to reach his or her full potential, and where public policies and personal values give highest priority to healthy whole children."
