Jefferson Street is where most of this starts

If a judge, a court commissioner or a probation agent in Green Bay has told you to look into anger management, the paperwork almost certainly traces back to one downtown block. Brown County's own court page, cited below, puts the Circuit Court inside the Brown County Courthouse at 100 South Jefferson Street. The county also says its circuit courts are made up of eight judicial branches, and that those branches handle criminal, traffic, juvenile and family matters along with civil, probate and mental health cases.

Family matters get extra attention through the county's Court Commissioners. Brown County lists them as handling divorce, abuse injunctions and child support enforcement. So a person might hear the words "anger management" in a criminal courtroom, in a commissioner's hearing on an injunction, or during a divorce. The setting changes what the court may expect, which is why the details of your own order matter more than anything a directory can tell you.

Probation units a few doors up the street

The Wisconsin Department of Corrections places Brown County under its Region 4 for probation and parole. Its office list shows several Brown County units working out of 200 North Jefferson Street in downtown Green Bay, a short walk from the courthouse, with more units at 2000 American Boulevard in De Pere. If you're under supervision, your agent is the person to ask about class length, what proof of attendance looks like, and whether a particular format will be accepted in your case.

A plain rule applies to everything on this page: only the court or your probation agent decides whether a specific program fits an order. A provider's own description can't settle that question, and neither can we. Get the answer in writing, or at least write down who told you and when, before you pay for anything.

Not everyone here has a case

Plenty of people in Green Bay, Allouez, Ashwaubenon and De Pere look for an anger class with no court involved at all. Maybe a spouse asked. Maybe a supervisor at work mentioned it after a tense shift. Maybe you just noticed the same argument keeps ending the same way. Voluntary classes cover much of the same ground as court-referred ones: noticing early signs, slowing down a reaction, and talking through conflict without it boiling over.

If you're signing up on your own, you have more freedom. You can choose a shorter course, a one-on-one format, or a weekly group, and you can stop and start based on what's useful rather than a deadline.

Questions worth asking a provider

Before your first session, call or email and ask:

How many hours does the class run, and over how many weeks?
Is it a group, individual sessions, or both?
What kind of attendance record or completion letter do you give, and how is it delivered?
Is there an in-person option in Green Bay or De Pere, and is there an online option?
What happens if I miss a week because of a shift change or bad roads?
Who leads the sessions, and what is their background?

Write the answers down. If you have an order, bring those notes to your agent or attorney and let them tell you whether the class works for your situation.

Practical logistics in Brown County

Winter matters here. A Tuesday evening class on the other side of town can feel very different in January than in June, so think honestly about whether you'll make it every week. Online groups can help people who work early or rotating shifts, or who don't have a reliable car. If your order or agent requires in-person attendance, ask about that before choosing a virtual option.

Parking near the courthouse and the 200 North Jefferson offices can be tight during business hours, so leave extra time for any appointment downtown. If you have hearings and check-ins in the same week, try to keep your class on a different day to avoid stacking everything into one afternoon.

How this directory works

We list independent providers so you can compare formats, schedules and approaches in one place. We don't run classes, and we don't check anyone's background or credentials. Contact the providers directly, ask the questions above, and confirm with your court or probation agent before you enroll if a case is involved.
