The LA OJJ - Acadiana Center for Youth at Bunkie is within the jurisdiction of the Louisiana Department of Juvenile Justice located at 1536 Bordelon Rd, Bunkie, LA.
The facility provides supervision of youth in a safe, secure and humane environment. Services for youth include education, mental health, substance abuse, and health care. Medical and mental health are contracted services. Educational services are funded by the Louisiana Department of Education through local school districts.
A typical day in secure detention would involve hygiene, meals, school, structured physical and educational activities, and court appearance as scheduled. The average length of stay in secure state detention is approximately 60 days.
Acadiana Center for Youth - Bunkie serves as a state-funded juvenile detention center, offering a comprehensive array of treatment and program services for youth within OJJ secure care facilities. These services are tailored to meet the individual needs of each youth based on assessments.
Participation in LAMOD (the Louisiana Model for Secure Care) is mandatory for all youth at the center. LAMOD represents a cornerstone of the juvenile justice reform movement, specifically designed by OJJ in collaboration with the Missouri Youth Services Institute (MYSI) and the Casey Strategic Consulting Group (CSCG). This therapeutic approach is customized to suit Louisiana's distinct environment, dynamics, and requirements, emphasizing small group interactions between youth and staff, involvement of families, and the cultivation of positive peer culture. The ultimate aim of LAMOD is to equip youth with the skills necessary for successful re-entry into the community as productive citizens.
In addition to LAMOD, Acadiana Center for Youth - Bunkie offers a range of other treatment services and programs, including but not limited to Thinking for a Change, Anger Management - Cage Your Rage, Victim Awareness Program, Substance Abuse Treatment, Healthy Masculinity, Pre-Release Preparation, Parenting, Juvenile Understanding and Managing Problematic Behavior Program (JUMP), Sexual Treatment Units, and FAST Track.
These treatment services and programs are integral components of the center's mission to promote rehabilitation and positive behavioral change among its youth residents, with the overarching goal of facilitating successful reintegration into the community.
Juvenile facilities overseen by the State of Louisiana do not publish the names of the offenders housed in their facility. As such, there is no public forum for this information.
OJJ Visitation Guidelines link from their website - Support and visitation by family members play a crucial role in ensuring the well-being of youth in secure care facilities. Visits from family members can serve as a source of motivation and inspiration for youth, encouraging their active participation in programming and helping them to achieve the goals outlined in their treatment plans. Moreover, such visits may contribute to the possibility of an earlier release date for the youth. Demonstrating your care through regular visits reassures your child that they are not forgotten and reinforces their sense of connection to their family.
During your visit, you will have the opportunity to meet with facility staff to discuss your child's progress and any concerns you may have. Your child may designate approved visitors, and the facility will assist them in creating a visitor list with guidance from their case manager or counselor. This list will be available for your review.
To ensure the safety and security of all individuals involved, background checks are conducted on potential visitors before they are permitted to visit the facility grounds. Your child retains the right to refuse any visitor if they so choose.
If you encounter challenges in visiting your child due to transportation issues or personal circumstances, you are encouraged to reach out to the facility, regional office, or the OJJ Regional Family Liaison for assistance in scheduling a visit or addressing any other concerns you may have.
For detailed information on the visitor approval process and safety measures during visitation, please refer to the secure care facilities or contact the relevant authorities for guidance.
