Preferred term

juvenile detention centers  

Definition

  • Juvenile detention centers detain young offenders sentenced by a juvenile court as well as those awaiting trial. In principle, juvenile detention center sentences are reserved for the most dangerous offenders from whom society needs protection or for those who are most likely to escape before their case ever reaches the court.
