The definitional statement is as follows: 'Juvenile detention is the temporary and secure custody of children accused or adjudicated of conduct subject to the jurisdiction of the family/juvenile court who require a physically restricting environment for their own or the community's protection while pending legal action. Further, juvenile detention provides and maintains a wide range of helpful services which include, but are not limited to, the following: education, visitation, private communications, counseling, continuous supervision, medical and health care, nutrition, recreation, and reading. To advise the court on the proper course of action required to restore the child to a productive role in the community, detention also includes or provides a system for clinical observation and diagnosis which compliments the wide range of helpful services.' The committee hopes this statement will be reviewed and discussed by the American Correctional Association, the National Juvenile Detention Association, and the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges. 1 note.
