The Council reviews, and when appropriate, responds to issues and legislation that affect juvenile justice in the State. An in-depth and routine review of Juvenile Court and probation standards is an essential task of the Council.

When appropriate, members will testify at public/private hearings and speak with government representatives to ensure the laws governing the juvenile justice system meet the needs of the community, victims and the youth it serves.
Ongoing education and training for probation officers and child care staff is encouraged and supported by the Council. Council members suggest topics for the Center for Juvenile Justice Training and Research annual training programs. Recent programs have focused on Balanced and Restorative Justice issues and practices, victim services, satanic cults, educational law, probation officer safety, cultural diversity, gangs, etc. In addition, Council members instruct courses in the undergraduate and graduate Criminal Justice Program numerous institutions of higher learning.
