Deputy Probation Officers (DPOs) supervise youth who have been placed on informal probation pursuant to Sections 725(a) and Section 654.2 of the Welfare and Institutions Code. Youth are assigned a DPO and referred to community-based organizations for services that address mental health, behavioral and delinquency issues. If the youth fulfills their court-ordered conditions and does not commit a new law violation, the DPO will recommend to the court that probation services be terminated.
If you have questions about a court case, contact 650-312-8816, and ask for the assigned Deputy Probation Officer.
