The Locked Detention program serves as a crucial intervention for youths deemed an immediate threat to community safety. Offering short-term confinement, it caters to delinquent youths awaiting adjudication, placement, or sentence fulfillment as mandated by Utah Juvenile Court Judges. With 11 separate programs operating statewide, participants engage in structured activities like schooling, cognitive behavioral skill-building groups, and recreational endeavors, bolstered by strong encouragement for family involvement through phone contact and visitation.

Guided by the Statewide Detention Admission Guidelines, the program admits youths based on a comprehensive list of "Holdable Offenses." However, certain exclusionary criteria exist, including status offense charges, recent court hearing absences, runaway incidents, experiences of abuse or neglect, and age restrictions.

The program's objectives encompass community protection, youth accountability, and early screening and assessment to address underlying issues. The duration of stay is individualized for each youth by the Utah Juvenile Court, targeting delinquent youths aged 12-17 deemed a significant community risk. Through tailored interventions, the program aims to mitigate immediate dangers while fostering rehabilitation and successful community reintegration.
