Interested in Juvenile Social Justice?

Professor Scully is looking for students to work at a series of “Know Your Rights” workshops for children ages 12-19, presented by the Public Defender Office of the 12th Judicial Circuit, partnered with the Social Justice Advocacy Concentration Program at Stetson. The children in this group are all either on juvenile probation or in pretrial diversion programs.  By participating in these programs, the juveniles will receive community service hours and upon successful completion they will have their cases dismissed by the Department of Juvenile Justice and avoid having to enter any type of plea.

The position is a part-time temporary coordinator of activities, starting in July or August. Potential candidates should be able to work consistently 10 hours a week for 5 weeks, and then at least 5 hours a week for 5 more weeks. Candidates who are committed to working for two semesters are preferred. Preference will be given to students who have already completed or are currently enrolled in the Stetson Criminal Procedure Investigation class.

Candidates should email their resume to Professor Scully at [email protected].
