CLALLAM CO JUVENILE DETENTION

Clallam Co Juvenile Detention is a public high school that is part of the Olympic Educational Service District 114 school district, located in PORT ANGELES, WA with about 10 students offering grade levels from 8th Grade to 12th Grade.

The **Clallam County Juvenile Detention Center**, located in Port Angeles, Washington, functions primarily as a secure residential facility for youth who have been placed under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court system. As a component of the county’s justice infrastructure, the facility provides short-term secure confinement for minors awaiting trial, sentencing, or placement in longer-term rehabilitation programs. Its operational focus is centered on maintaining safety, security, and order while managing the specific legal and behavioral needs of the incarcerated youth population.

Beyond its role in detention, the facility works in coordination with the Clallam County Juvenile Services department to provide essential services to residents, including access to educational programming, mental health support, and mandated life-skills training. Because it is a secure environment, the center operates under strict regulatory guidelines to ensure the protection of both the staff and the youth in custody, aiming to balance the requirements of the legal system with the rehabilitative objectives required by state and local juvenile justice mandates.
