Types of Memberships
There are four levels of membership in the Teen Court Association of Texas:
Full Member – Each existing and operating Teen Court program may
have an unlimited number of full memberships, but shall only be entitled to one
vote per Teen Court program. A full membership costs $35.00 per person annually.
Associate Member – Anyone interested in starting a Teen Court program
or who is not directly involved in a Teen Court program but supports its cause,
such as attorneys, judges, community members, law enforcements officers, etc., may
be an associate member. Associate members are not given voting rights but are entitled
to all other benefits of membership in TCAT. The cost for an associate membership
is $25.00 per person annually.
Honorary Member – Honorary members are appointed by the board of
directors or general membership by a vote. This level of membership is to recognize
those who have made valuable contributions to the mission of Texas Teen Courts.
The membership lasts for a period of one year and honorary members are not given
voting rights.
Lifetime Member – Lifetime membership is the highest award given
by the Teen Court Association of Texas. While they do not enjoy voting rights, this
level of membership is reserved for those persons who have devoted a substantial
portion of their career developing, advocating for, and contributing to Texas Teen
Courts. Formal criteria for lifetime membership will be considered at the 2009 conference.
