Mahoning County Juvenile Detention

The MCJDC, short for Mahoning County Juvenile Detention Center provides for the protection and care of the youth offenders who are detained in the facility and who are serving a required sentence. Maintaining a safe and secure environment that allows for students, staff, and visitors to feel safe while they are within the facility, is the main goal of the staff. Programs are maintained to offer support to families and the youth to create a safe and positive environment both within the facility and in the surrounding community. Those who are tried as a youth will find themselves detained here, which includes those who were under 18 when the offence was committed even up until the youth turns 21. There are 40 beds in the facility and the main puprose of these beds is to provide housing for before the court trial and while they wait to be transferred to another facility for their sentence. Each housing unit has one common area and 10 private rooms, with each housing unit being organized by age, charges faced, and keeping male and female detainees separated. Mail: Letters may be sent and received each day, and those received will have stamps, tape, and any stickers removed before the student opens them in front of staff. Phones: Phone calls may only be made to the parents of the student, or their attorney, and phone time is earned through the level system based upon behavior and choices made. Calls will be 10 minutes only, and are made collect to the receiver. Visitation: Parents and guardians are permitted to visit on Wednesday between 6:30pm and 7:30pm, Saturday 1:30-2:30pm or Sunday 12:30-1:30pm.
