Participation in Homeless Court

Participation in Homeless Court requires that:

• You don't have any active felony warrants.
• You don't have any criminal charges with mandatory sentencing provisions or charges where a victim has invoked their rights.
• You must either have income (employment or benefits), have applied for benefits, or be actively looking for employment.
• You must be actively enrolled in a program with a qualified provider and have completed (or be near completion) with all program/case plan requirements.
• You have to be in regular contact with your case manager and your case manager must confirm that you are no longer "living a homeless lifestyle" and you are not likely to be arrested for "quality of life" offenses.
• A criminal background check must be performed (Homeless Court Coordinator will perform this).
