About youth detention center
In the US criminal justice system, a youth detention center (YDC) may also be referred to as a juvenile detention center (JDC), juvenile detention, juvenile jail, juvenile hall, observation home and a remand home. Colloquially it is often referred to as "juvie". A YDC or JDC is a prison for youth offenders under the age of 18, also legally referred to as minors or under the age of majority. Juvenile offenders are tried in juvenile court, which is a separate system for youth offenders. After arrest as well as depending upon many factors, such as the frequency and nature of their crimes, juveniles either await trial or placement in a long-term care program, with the goal of rehabilitation.
