The Sonoma County Juvenile Detention is a medium to low-security detention center located at 7425 Rancho Los Guilicos Rd Santa Rosa, CA that is operated locally by the Juvenile Justice Department and holds youths awaiting the determination of punishment for the crimes of which they are accused. Most of the adolescents are here for less than two years.
The juvenile justice system differs from the adult system, focusing on rehabilitation and recognizing the developmental differences in juveniles. It aims to protect both the child and the public and helps juveniles become productive adults.
Juveniles are detained if they pose a threat, may miss court, or violate court orders. Parental involvement is crucial for effective supervision and rehabilitation.
Key differences in terminology include "taken into custody" instead of "arrest" and "supervision" instead of "probation." Referrals usually come from law enforcement, and an intake social worker decides the juvenile's placement. An inquiry can lead to dismissal, corrective action, or court involvement.
The process includes a plea hearing, possible evaluations, a pre-trial conference, a fact-finding hearing, and a dispositional hearing to determine the case's outcome. Parents may need to cover associated costs.
Program Description - The primary function of the Sonoma County Juvenile Hall is to provide temporary, safe, and secure detention for youths who are beyond the normal controls of the community. Youth are detained in Juvenile Hall pending their Juvenile Court Hearings, while they are serving short-term commitments, or awaiting out-of-home placement in a foster/group home, camp or other institution. A very small percentage of minors apprehended by law enforcement agencies are actually detained in Juvenile Hall and the balance is released to their parent(s)/guardian(s).
Our most valuable resource at Juvenile Hall is our staff team. Our Juvenile Correctional Counselors recognize that they serve as role models who uphold high professional and ethical standards of behavior. Mutual respect and professionalism are projected through staff appearance, attitude and approach to the minors and the community they serve.
Juvenile Hall uses a variety of programming to target specific needs of the individual such as: Adolescent Treatment Program: supports youth with drug and alcohol issues
