Note: To preserve the privacy of the juvenile residents, state level cell counts have been rounded to the nearest multiple of three. "State of Offense" refers to where the juvenile committed the offense for which they were being held.
Note: Committed juveniles include those placed in the facility as part of a court ordered disposition. Detained juveniles include those held awaiting a court hearing, adjudication, disposition or placement elsewhere. Diverted juveniles include those voluntarily admitted to the facility in lieu of adjudication as part of a diversion agreement. Totals include juveniles for whom placement status was reported as unknown or "other."
