juvenile correctional facilities

Juvenile correctional facilities are specialized institutions designed to house young people, typically under 18, who have committed offenses. They aim to provide accountability, safety, and opportunities for rehabilitation through structured programs, education, and counseling. Unlike adult prisons, these facilities focus more on reforming behavior and supporting positive development to help juveniles reintegrate into society successfully. The goal is to address underlying issues and prevent future crimes while ensuring the safety of both residents and the community.
