Who are persons in need of supervision?

Persons in need of supervision are typically individuals, often minors, who require guidance and oversight due to behavioral, emotional, or developmental challenges. This may include youth involved in the juvenile justice system, those who exhibit at-risk behavior, or individuals with mental health issues. Supervision aims to provide a structured environment to promote safety, accountability, and positive development. In some cases, this may also extend to vulnerable adults who need support in managing daily activities or decision-making.
