California to phase out Division of Juvenile Justice, creating an opportunity for substantial reform State-run youth prisons come at a hefty cost to taxpayers. By Kiara Quaranta | January 7, 2021 at 11:04 AM MST - Updated January 7 at 11:06 AM
Next summer, California will begin closing its three youth detention centers and shift the responsibility of juvenile justice onto the stateâs 58 counties, ending an 80-year history of detention facilities that have been criticized for wanton violence and widespread racial disparities.
Under a bill Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law in September, three Division of Juvenile Justice youth correctional facilities will be closed. California will join Connecticut, Wisconsin, South Dakota and several other states that have closed state-run youth prisons in recent years, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
