Youth are individuals who could be eligible to receive indigent defense services if they are ever involved with the juvenile court.

Reporting period refers to the specific timeframe covered by this report. Legal representation refers to the defense counsel provided to the youth throughout the duration of the court’s proceedings, filings, appeals, and hearings.
