Oct. 15, 2025 -- The Lackawanna County commissioners presented a proclamation Wednesday declaring Oct. 5-11, 2025, as “Juvenile Justice Week” in Lackawanna County.

Lackawanna County’s juvenile justice system is charged with providing supervision, care and rehabilitation, providing protection to our communities, accountability for juveniles, and helping children to become responsible and productive people. Their mission is to provide prompt and fair justice to all individuals and families that come before the court by promoting family stability through a strong community support system.

The commissioners recognize employees of the Lackawanna County Juvenile Probation Office for providing a vital link for children in the juvenile justice system, and for exhibiting compassion, understanding and professionalism when performing their duties.
