ROOMS

Youth remain on the unit when it is time to sleep. Certain clothing, such as shoes and sweatshirts, are not permitted inside the cell to maintain the safety of those inside. The boys’ units have 1 person assigned to each cell. The girls’ unit houses 2 people per cell. Each person is provided with one mat, a sheet and blankets. All youth are allowed to take one religious book into his/her room; however, depending on their level, youth can also have 2 other books. There is one ceiling light in the cell and it is controlled by the unit staff. Cells are locked and monitored by unit staff at all times to maintain youth safety. Youth must sleep with their heads uncovered to allow staff to see that they are well.

A toilet and sink is provided in each cell.
