Introduction |
|
Youth correctional facility programs provide the highest levels of security and structure within the OYA close custody system. These facilities are sited across the state and serve varied populations. Operating capacities vary from MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility serving 345 offenders to North Coast and Eastern Oregon Youth Correctional Facilities serving 25 each. Founded on the principles of personal responsibility, accountability, and reformation, these facilities provide high security, intensive accountability, and treatment designed to meet the specific reformation needs of youth while protecting the public from further criminal behavior.
Youth live in group settings and many of their daily activities are conducted within living units. A continuum of reformation and rehabilitative services are provided both by OYA employees and contracted providers from the private sector.

Transition/Work Study |
|
Transition programs provide a bridge from the secure facilities to a community placement. They provide youth the oportunity to continue treatment, attend school, and build vocational skills. Youth work on community service projects, supervised work crews and town jobs to instill a work ethic, accountability, and responsibility through payment of restitution to both victims and the community.
