SECTION 8.09. DISPOSITION HEARINGS
A. The purpose of the disposition hearing is to determine how to resolve a matter after it has been determined that the juvenile has committed a juvenile offense. If the Juvenile Court determines that a juvenile has committed a juvenile offense, the disposition hearing may follow immediately after the jurisdictional hearing, or the Court may take the matter under advisement and hold a disposition hearing within ten (10) days. If the Juvenile Court schedules a disposition hearing for a later date, the Court shall provide notice of the disposition hearing date to all parties and shall make an order for the temporary placement of the juvenile pending the disposition hearing, where appropriate.
B. The goal of the Juvenile Court shall be rehabilitation and guidance, not punishment. The Juvenile Court, in determining the appropriate disposition of each juvenile matter, shall endeavor to select the alternative that is the least restrictive upon the juvenile, consistent with the goal of rehabilitation.
SECTION 8.11. DISPOSITION ALTERNATIVES
A. The Juvenile Court shall have broad discretionary power to make orders for the care, custody, control, and rehabilitation of juvenile offenders, including but not limited to, orders:
1. Permitting the juvenile to remain with the juvenile’s parent(s), guardian, or custodian, subject to any terms and conditions the Juvenile Court deems appropriate;
2. Placing the juvenile in the physical custody of a relative or other suitable person, in accordance with the Minor-In-Need-Of-Care provisions of this code, subject to any terms and conditions the Juvenile Court deems appropriate;
