The Washington County WI Juvenile Secure Detention is a medium to low-security detention center located at 500 Rolfs Ave West Bend, WI 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.

The Washington County Juvenile Secure Detention, managed by the Sheriff's Office, operates as a regional secure facility. It serves not only the local community of Washington County but also accommodates youth from various counties across Wisconsin. The facility is dedicated to providing a secure environment for detained youth, focusing on rehabilitation and positive development.

Youth housed at this facility receive their educational services through the West Bend School District, ensuring that their academic needs are met despite their circumstances. Additionally, the facility offers structured programming aimed at addressing issues commonly associated with delinquency. These programs are designed to aid in the personal and social development of the juveniles.

The overarching goal of the Washington County Juvenile Secure Detention Facility is to foster a positive and constructive environment. By doing so, it seeks to encourage juveniles to reintegrate into society as responsible and law-abiding citizens. This approach underlines the facility's commitment to not only manage juvenile delinquency but also to rehabilitate and transform the lives of these young individuals.
