Home Detention
Home Detention is a program designed for youth ages 10 through 17 that reside in Brown County. Home Detention is defined as the supervision of a juvenile in his own residence as ordered by the Court. Home Detention Officers closely monitor the youth’s activities and behavior for a period of time. A juvenile is placed on this program under strict guidelines to help him become more accountable for his decisions and attitude.
Home Detention is used as a less restrictive alternative to secure detention and to assist in keeping youth supported within the community.
