Cognitive Skills Classes: 18 week classes. This program operates through a curriculum called, "Thinking for a Change," which helps assist offenders in examining and correcting thinking errors. Community Work Service Program: Juveniles are assigned to do community work service, either through juvenile court or the diversion process, to work on projects throughout the county under the supervision of an adult supervisor. These work sites have been recruited and are continually montored by the Juvenile STS Crew Leader. Community service work sites offer a varied degree of work experiences that allow the juveniles to provide a service to their community. Electronic Surveillance Program: Utilizes electronic surveillance equipment for juveniles as an alternative to detention. Probation Officers make recommendations to the District Court regarding the appropriateness of releasing a juvenile on electronic monitoring to his/her parent or guardian's custody pending further hearings or disposition. Nicollet County Probation also uses electronic monitoring as a condition/sanction of a juvenile's probation. This option is used for juvenile offenders, both as an alternative for detention, as well as short term consequential programming. First Time Offenders Programs: Provides a number of opportunities for first time juvenile offenders. Many of these are educational groups, which are run within the department, as well as several where referrals are made to other agencies.

Juvenile Diversion Program: Offered for first time minor offenders. These juveniles are diverted from the juvenile court upon agreement of the County Attorney's Office and the Probation Department. The Probation Department meets with these juveniles and their parent(s) and provides programming that will deter further delinquent activity. Project Nighthawk: Joins probation officers and law enforcement in partnership to ensure compliance of court orders through random home visits to hold clients accountable to probation conditions, such as drug and alcohol testing.
