Norfolk Juvenile Detention Center accepts both male and female young offenders who are aged 12-20 with 64 beds in their pre-dispositional section. Of the 64 available beds, 48 are designated for male offenders and 16 for female offenders, and they are split into housing units that include a common area and provide a set group of individuals that will eat together, attend class together, and enjoy recreational time together.
