Hays County Juvenile Detention Center
Hays County Juvenile Detention Center
Specialty programs are part of the integral programming within the Hays County Juvenile Detention Center including substance abuse programs, sex offender programs, female offender programming, and a focus on mental health. There is a top capacity of 34 juveniles, both male and female, who are of the ages 10 through 17. Mental health evaluations or assessments are completed upon their admission, and this will form the basis for their mental health support throughout their stay. Counseling may be in the form of individual counseling, group counseling, family counseling, or substance abuse groups. Where the assessment shows that substance abuse is a concern, they will be provided treatment to overcome their reliance on drugs or alcohol. Anger management and conflict resolution skills are also taught, and they will be provided with re-entry or transitional services to assist in the transition back to their community after they have completed the program. Family support is key to the success and lower recidivism for all juveniles in the court systems, so opportunities are provided for the immediate family to interact during counseling, to engage in some of the programs with their child, and to have visits periodically.
