The Medina County Juvenile Detention Center is a medium to low-security detention center located at 655 Independence Dr Medina, OH 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 Medina County Juvenile Detention Center operates as a 30-bed, maximum security facility with a paramount mission of safeguarding the community from juvenile offenders. Committed to integrity and professionalism, its goal is to provide a safe and secure environment. It is the overarching philosophy of the Medina County Juvenile Court that detention should be utilized as a last resort, primarily for youths who have committed serious offenses and pose a risk to themselves and/or the community.
While the detention center does not function as a treatment facility, the institution firmly believes in making a positive impact on the youth, striving to effect lasting change for the better. Their approach is rooted in the aspiration of permanently altering the trajectory of the youths' lives. Through dedicated efforts and comprehensive support, they endeavor to instill values of responsibility, accountability, and rehabilitation, guiding the youths toward a brighter and more promising future.
Juvenile facilities overseen by Medina County do not publish the names of the offenders housed in their facility. As such, there is no public forum for this information.
