About CourtWatch
CourtWatch Florida is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit that was founded in 2007 by a subcommittee of the Orange County Domestic Violence Task Force.
Our mission is to empower the community to positively impact the judicial system's handling of domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse cases.
We monitor criminal and injunction hearings in Orange and Seminole Counties in an effort to assure that the justice system holds perpetrators of these crimes accountable for their actions while not re-victimizing their victims in the process.
