This act calls for the establishment of community programs designed to provide citizen participation in addressing juvenile delinquency through panels that informally hear juvenile cases that are referred as station adjustments, probation adjustments, or as diversion from prosecution. It also outlines the manner in which these cases should be disposed and provides an oath of confidentiality to be signed by all program mediators and observers.
