School Overview
The Columbia Secure Center for Girls, located in Claverack, New York, is a high-security residential facility operated by the New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS). It serves as a secure placement setting for adolescent females who have been adjudicated by the family court system. The facility is designed to provide intensive supervision and rehabilitation for youth who require a high level of structure due to the nature of their offenses or their history of involvement with the juvenile justice system.

The center’s programming focuses on a combination of academic education, clinical services, and behavioral intervention. Residents participate in a state-approved educational curriculum while receiving therapeutic support aimed at addressing trauma, mental health needs, and social-emotional development. The goal of the institution is to provide a rehabilitative environment that fosters personal growth and accountability, ultimately preparing the youth for a successful transition back into their families and communities.
