Since the closure of the Louisville Metro Youth Detention Center in December 2019, there has been no safe space for law enforcement to bring youth that are waiting to be screened by the Court Designated Worker (CDW). The Juvenile Assessment Center will provide a space for the CDW to conduct confidential screening assessments on juveniles, and a place for juveniles to receive basic life needs (e.g., food, restrooms, medical treatment, etc.) while being in a staff-secured setting supervised by sworn peace officers.
