The Rising Stars Youth Steel Orchestra is a non-profit, school dropout prevention program of the Virgin Islands Territorial Court. Presiding Judge Verne A. Hodge conceived this program in 1980, because of his frustration with the confinement of talented youngsters who had gone astray. It was his idea that judges and courts should do more than simply confine youthful offenders by becoming more actively involved in the prevention of juvenile delinquency.
