Verification & Documentation: Sites marked ✅ Verified are commonly accepted by local courts or probation programs. Availability may change. Prior approval may be required by your officer or the clerk. Always bring a timesheet, obtain a supervisor’s signature with printed name, phone, and address, and keep copies for your records.

Restrictions: If you have no-contact orders, trespass warnings, or offense-specific restrictions, choose placements that avoid conflicts (e.g., avoid retail if the case involves retail theft). Juvenile volunteers may need parental consent.
