The Locked Detention program serves as a vital mechanism for addressing the immediate safety concerns posed by delinquent youths within the community. Designed for short-term confinement, it caters to youths awaiting adjudication, placement, or serving sentences as mandated by a Utah Juvenile Court Judge, with 11 distinct programs operational across the state. Participants engage in structured activities such as schooling, cognitive behavioral skill-building groups, and recreational pursuits, while familial involvement, including phone contact and visitation, is strongly encouraged to foster rehabilitation.

Admission into the program is governed by the Statewide Detention Admission Guidelines, which outline a comprehensive list of "Holdable Offenses." However, certain exclusionary criteria exist, including charges related to status offenses, failure to appear at court hearings, runaway incidents, and experiences of abuse or neglect, with age restrictions also in place.

With a focus on community protection and accountability, the program aims to conduct early screening and assessment to address underlying issues. Individualized lengths of stay are determined by the Utah Juvenile Court, catering to delinquent youths aged 12-17 deemed to pose a significant risk to the community. Through these targeted interventions, the program endeavors to mitigate immediate dangers while facilitating rehabilitation and eventual reintegration into society.
