Municipal and Traffic Court of New Orleans (MTCNO) is dedicated to serving the community and ensuring justice for all. This employer profile is specific to and managed by a program at MTCNO called Crescent City Community Court.

Crescent City Community Court at MTCNO is a court-based program that connects participants to resources, services, and treatment instead of fines or jail time. Court appearances are replaced with round-table conferences that include a compassionate judge, case management staff, and community partners. We seek to address the underlying reasons that cases enter MTCNO—whether related to unmet psychosocial needs or interpersonal conflict—and cases are resolved favorably as a result of participation. We offer a new approach to community justice within the court setting.
