Not only does our program benefit courts by saving them money and time, it also benefits individuals. Research shows that diversion programs reduce the possibility of committing a crime more than once, provide financial relief for criminal justice systems, and support rehabilitation — all while benefiting local communities.
Collaborative Courts
The Uncover KC Collaborative Courts Program provides opportunities and structure for court-mandated volunteers to fulfill required service hours. We connect people accused with a crime with local, pre-screened organizations, then accurately verify and report completed hours.
