The Calhoun County Juvenile Home is operated under the auspices of
the Calhoun County Board
of Commissioners. The Detention Program is designed to provide
a short-term, physically restrictive, safe and humane environment for 42
youth, both male and female, ages 11 to 17 who are detained pending
further court action. The youth who are placed in the Detention
Program via court order are experiencing difficulties in their community
and are placed in detention prior to adjudication or while awaiting
disposition or placement. Discharge from detention occurs only
through posting of bond (if applicable) or by order of the court.
The Detention Program components are designed to meet each individual
youth's needs. The following programs have been implemented to
insure that these needs are met: nutritional program, religious
services, educational program, recreational program, hygiene program,
health services and counseling services.
Parents and/or legal guardians and grandparents are encouraged to
visit youth that are detained in the Juvenile Home. Visitation is
scheduled for one half-hour each Sunday afternoon between 1:00 and 2:30
pm and one half-hour on Thursday between 7:00 and 8:00 pm. The
Program Services Coordinator must approve exceptions in advance.
