Juvenile Detention and Correctional Facility Census, 1974
The 1974 census includes juvenile detention and
correctional facilities that were operated by state or local
governments in November 1974, and had been in operation for at least a
month prior to June 30, 1974. There is one record for each juvenile
detention facility that had a population of at least 50 percent
juveniles. Each record is classified into one of six categories:
detention centers or shelters, reception or diagnostic centers,
training schools, ranches, forestry camps and farms, and halfway
houses and group homes. Data include state, county, and city
identification, level of government responsible for the facility, type
of agency, agency identification, resident population by sex, age
range, detention status, and offense, admissions and departures of
population, average length of stay, staffing and expenditures, age and
capacity of the facility, and programs and services available.
