Testimonials
-
NLR Teen Court was a way to express my leadership capabilities inside the club and out. Understanding the legal system and laws associated with criminal trials has helped me to learn my rights and how a true courtroom works. If I could start any club at my college campus it would be a Teen Court.
-
NLR Teen Court opened many doors for me. I participated from the first day of NLR Teen Court until I graduated and it has taught me that I want to be a leader in this community. NLR Teen Court can change the lives of youth in our community.
