Alternative Community Programs of Montgomery and Floyd counties is responsible for administering programs and services to court-involved youth. These services are designed to deter juvenile crime and provide detention alternatives. Juveniles may be referred to Alternative Community Programs by 27th District Court Services Unit Staff or Juvenile and Domestic Relations Courts.

Community Service

This program is used to provide juveniles with a consequence for their behavior, as well as providing them with a basic understanding of responsibility and good work habits.

Home Electronic Monitoring and Home Confinement

In an effort to utilize least restrictive measures, the home confinement and home electronic monitoring programs offer an alternative to secure detention, either pre- or post-dispositionally. The programs seek to maintain the child in the community while ensuring public safety, as well as increased parental responsibility for the child's behavior.

We are always actively recruiting new non-profit agencies. If you are interested in an opportunity to help at-risk youth, please contact us.
