We also handle all court-ordered community service transfers in and out of Kern County. For example: If you got in trouble in Kern County but live out of County or State we handle the transfer paperwork. In addition, we handle out of county/state transfers if you got in trouble somewhere else but live in Kern County and want to complete your hours where you live.
STEPS TO SIGN-UP FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE

3. A place will be assigned to you to complete your community service hours based on your availability/schedule. We have places that the court allows us to send clients in most of the cities in Kern County. They must be a non-profit, governmental or health-related agency - i.e. - if you live in Shafter, we will assign you an Agency in Shafter to complete your hours.
4. We will issue you an official time sheet for the Agency we assign you to. Your hours will be recorded by that Agency.
5. Complete your hours at the Agency we assign you to and then
bring your time sheet back to our office!!!!!
DO NOT TAKE THE TIME SHEET TO COURT, GIVE IT YOUR LAWYER OR PROBATION OFFICER!!
After your hours are done we will issue you a completion certificate and let the Courts know you finished!
