Court Ordered Community Service

The Schreiber Center accepts Pennsylvania-based court-ordered community service hours for non-violent misdemeanors, traffic violations, and some probation violations.

We are currently only able to accommodate court-ordered community service for a limited number of roles. Community-service volunteers do not have direct contact with our clients or students. Rather they are responsible for other tasks that help support our mission. Tasks may include, but are not limited to, cleaning, facility and ground maintenance, shredding, etc.

  • DUI/DWI
  • Possession of Marijuana
  • Minor Traffic Violations
  • Underage Drinking
Excluded Offenses: Felonies, violent offenses, sexual offenses, or offenses against children.
  • Assault/Battery
  • Child/Elder abuse or neglect
  • Domestic violence
  • Homicide
  • Kidnapping
  • Rape
  • Sexual assault
