The Grand Jurors’ Association is an all volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization comprised of former Marin County civil grand jurors. Our mission is to promote and enhance the unique and invaluable Civil Grand Jury function in Marin County.
Our objectives are to educate the public on the duties and responsibilities of the Civil Grand Jury, recruit and train new members of the Civil Grand Jury, promote Civil Grand Jury service, and follow-up on the recommendations of the Civil Grand Jury.
Through this website, you can learn about the Civil Grand Jury and our Association. If you are interested in applying for the Marin County Civil Grand Jury, we can be of assistance. If you are a past juror, we welcome you to join us.
