Programs

Judicial Community Outreach Program

Judicial officers attend or speak at schools, community events, and functions with the purpose of enhancing communication between the court and residents of Sacramento County.

The judicial branch of government plays a crucial role in the administration of justice in our society and the Sacramento Superior Court welcomes the opportunity to speak at your organization's events or schools about the role of the court in our community and other related topics.
