Arizona Dept. of Juvenile Correction

The Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections (ADJC) is committed to providing supervision, rehabilitation, treatment, and education to committed youth adjudicated under state law as delinquent. ADJC operates and maintains a secure care facility for the custody of youth who pose a threat to public safety, who have engaged in a pattern of conduct characterized by persistent and delinquent offenses that, as demonstrated through the use of other alternatives, cannot be controlled in a less secure setting or who have had their conditional liberty revoked pursuant to Arizona Revised Statute (ARS) § 41‑2819. Each youth who is placed in our secure care facility shall receive rehabilitative services appropriate to the youth's age, needs and abilities, including education, counseling, mental health services, recreation and vocational training.
