Academy programs serve the needs of adjudicated youth who generally are repeat offenders and/or violent crime offenders. Academy programs are located in facilities which range from staff-secure to hardware-secure. Academies provide the full programming over an average length of stay ranging from 9 to 15 months.
At certain facilities, various specialized programs are offered in addition to the academy program. These specialized programs are generally shorter term in nature but are designed to achieve the same goal as the academy program. Accordingly, at these facilities, educational, developmental and rehabilitative programs are modified to account for the shorter length-of-stay, the purpose of the program and/or the particular issues facing the residents of the program.
