Welcome

LawForKids.org staff were invited to tour the Mohave County Juvenile Facility to show what life is like for a juvenile in care. The tour provides pictures and information to learn more about the facility and its programming. The Mohave County Juvenile center is located at 300 W. Andy Devine Ave. in Kingman Arizona. This facility holds 32 beds in single occupancy rooms. The average stay for youth is from 14 days to 3 months. 

The Youth Justice Center is only used, when NECESSARY, for those youth that:

• Pose community safety issues if released until their appointed court date.
• May fail to show up for their court date.
• May re-offend or get re-arrested if released before their appointed court date.
• Do not have a place to go while waiting for their court date.

 *The content in this tour was reviewed and approved by Mohave County Juvenile Facility staff in August 2023. Any updates or changes to the facility after this date may not be captured in this narrative/virtual tour. Please contact the facility directly for any updates or clarifications.
