Time required can fluctuate from a few hours per week to whatever level the organization desires. In many cases, the child will work with the custodial or clerical staff. Thus, no additional time is required. What if there is a problem with a JASP participant? If you experience any difficulty with the participant, notify JASP immediately. If the problem cannot be rectified through mediation, the client will be moved to an alternative worksite. Absence, tardiness, or unsatisfactory performance will result in additional hours for the juvenile. What types of crimes will participants be charged with? JASP participants may be charged with misdemeanors or felonies. In most cases, they will be first time offenders. If your organization desires not to accept clients who have committed specific offenses, you may make this desire known to JASP and the child will not be referred. Crimes of a violent nature will usually not be referred to JASP. What liability does my organization and personnel have? • Your organization has no liability. Through our contract with HRS, Workmen's Compensation Insurance is provided for all JASP participants. Juvenile Services Program, Inc. also carries its own insurance covering all participants. In addition, parents and participants sign a waiver form releasing all liability from the worksite and JASP. How can my organization get involved in the JASP Worksite Program?
