The Court Information Office is
responsible for planning, designing, and executing programs to inform
and educate the public about the services, programs, and activities
of the Judiciary. The Office focuses on developing programs and activities
to increase the public’s awareness of the court’s role in the community.
Its many activities include the publication of the Judiciary’s quarterly
newsletter, Justice
Matters, and the administration of a judges’ Speakers
Bureau. The Office produces educational brochures
and videos, and works closely with judges and the community to promote
such important issues as building public trust and confidence in the
justice system. The
Court Information Office keeps the public, through the media, apprised
of newsworthy events by issuing press releases, and responds to
media requests for information, statistics, and photographs.
It also conducts on-going forums with the media and press, to facilitate
communication and share information. Contacts are maintained with
court public information offices across the country, so that activities,
programs, and experiences can be shared and resources can be identified
for future use.
