Juvenile Detention Centers are facilities designed to hold young people, typically aged 10 to 17, who have been accused of committing crimes. These centers provide a structured environment where youth can receive education, counseling, and support while awaiting court hearings or serving short-term sentences. The goal is to rehabilitate rather than punish, helping young offenders learn from their mistakes. In addition to housing youth, Juvenile Detention Centers often offer programs focused on life skills, mental health, and substance abuse treatment. Staff members, including social workers and educators, work to guide residents toward positive behavior and reintegration into their communities, reducing the likelihood of reoffending.
