The Kings County courts and local colleges have long enjoyed a cooperative approach to educating the youth of Brooklyn. Court employees and judges often attend conferences, speak at seminars and host children, teens and young adults at the courthouses.

Shannon Taylor, a court attorney at Brooklyn Criminal Court, organizes many such programs through his nonprofit Not Just Blacks And Jews In Conversation. A recent event this year brought two Kings County Supreme Court justices out to Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn, to speak at a Kingsborough Community College Criminal Justice Program.
