About the PCAA

Established in September 1993, the Probation Community Action Association is a private, non-profit support group to the Orange County Probation Department. It assists the Probation Department by helping youth and rebuilding families. The PCAA and Probation have become a “winning team” and encourage other Orange County residents to join in the battle to reduce youth crime and violence.

Mission Statement

PCAA’s mission is to provide assistance, advocacy and support for “at risk youth in Orange County Probation and to low income / high crime areas of the community by implementing intervention and gang prevention programs to help lessen domestic gang terrorism. Our challenge is to turn “youth at risk” to “youth of promise”. PCAA collaborates with the Orange County Probation Department to change young lives, turning them in a positive, life changing direction.
