Juvenile Court Parties???

In the juvenile court, a Party means a person who is directly involved in a proceeding or court hearing. 

Did you know that HB 641, the Children's Code Rewrite, makes sure children and youth are included as parties in juvenile court hearings about them? 

Under the current Georgia juvenile code, children and youth are not included in the definition of who is a party to court proceedings and hearings. 

This is just one reason, EmpowerMEnt's JUSTGeorgia Team supports the Children's Code Rewrite!!!
