Clarke County Public Schools serve Clarke County, Virginia, a community that bills itself as "Virginia's best-kept secret." Through foresight and planning, Clarke County has preserved its scenic open spaces, historic buildings, respect for traditional values, and engaging small town atmosphere. CCPS has been just as innovative. Although it is a small system with a small budget, CCPS uses limited resources efficiently and imaginatively to create a stimulating and challenging academic program for all students. As a result, Virginia's best-kept secret is a secret no more, as CCPS has earned a reputation as one of the state's most progressive school divisions. |

In Virginia, a juvenile is any person under 18 years of age. The juvenile and domestic relations district court hears all matters involving juveniles such as criminal or traffic matters. Juvenile delinquency cases are cases involving a minor under the age of 18 who has been accused of committing an offense that would be considered criminal if committed by an adult. Other juvenile offenses may be referred to as status offenses. Status offenses are those acts that are unlawful only because they are committed by a minor. In addition, this court handles other matters involving the family such as custody, support and visitation. The court also hears family abuse cases, cases where adults have been accused of child abuse or neglect, and criminal cases where the defendant and alleged victim are family or household members. There is a juvenile and domestic relations district court in each city and county. The judges of the juvenile and domestic relations district court are elected by the General Assembly for 6 year terms. |

Northwestern Community Services offers an array of outpatient, case management, day support, residential and emergency programs that are designed to enhance the quality of life for both children and adults affected by emotional/behavioral disorders, mental illness, substance use, and mental retardation and developmental disabilities (MR/DD). Northwestern specializes in rehabilitative and family support services for individuals with such long-term challenges as schizophrenia, bi-polar, major depression, addiction, and those with significant impairments from MR/DD. New referrals are screened for appropriateness and, depending upon capacity/need for service requested, may require placement on a waiting list. NWCS also provides 24-hour emergency evaluation, short-term treatment and hospital referral to individuals having mental health, emotional, substance use, or behavioral crises that pose a safety risk to themselves or others. After regular office hours when centers are closed, access to our professional emergency staff is available through Concern Hotline. Northwestern is a public provider with a staff of over 150 caring professionals. While some public funds support these programs, fees make up the largest portion of the budget and charges are based upon the individual or family’s available resources and ability to pay. |
