Instructions to parents regarding youths in detention

Office hours of Juvenile Court Counselors:

Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (The office is closed between noon and 1:00 p.m. for lunch)

Thursdays   10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Visiting youths in detention:

Visits are limited to approximately 45 minutes. Visiting is limited to the parent/guardian, attorney and only two visitors per youth are allowed. When it is necessary to visit at other than the above scheduled times, arrangements must be made through and with the written permission of the Juvenile Court Counselor assigned to each youth. Also, mitigating circumstances may allow visits by other appropriate people (other than parents), such as brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles. However, this only will be done with the approval from the Juvenile Court Counselor, Detention Supervisor, or the Director.

Cigarettes, tobacco and matches are not to be given to the youth, and a violation of this rule can result in a withdrawal of visiting privileges.

Due to problems in the past, purses may not be taken into the detention facility. We suggest that purses be locked in your car. Juvenile Department staff will not be responsible for any loss of or damage to purses.

NO GIFTS OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING FOOD, WILL BE ALLOWED INTO DETENTION.

Any violation of the above rules will result in termination of visiting privileges.
