Do I end up with a record if I go through an extrajudicial sanctions program?

Yes. You will still have a youth court record. It will be kept for two years from the time that you agree to enter into the program. During those two years, only certain people can look at your record. These people include yourself, your parents, your lawyer, the victim, the police, and some government officials, among others.

For more information about youth records, see the Youth Records pamphlet on the Alberta Courts website.
