  Outreach Detention/Electronic Monitoring 

Outreach Detention and Electronic Monitoring are alternatives to placement in a secure detention facility or out of home residential care. Outreach Detention is a program that provides intensive supervision to adolescents awaiting adjudication and/or disposition by the Juvenile Court. The Electronic Monitoring Program is essentially an appendage to the Outreach Program. This adds an electronic house arrest feature.

The goals of the program are to assure the availability of the offender for court and to prevent further delinquency pending disposition of charges currently before the court. This is accomplished through the provision of direct and indirect supervision.

Admission
Any youth designated as a candidate by the Court, provided he or she resides within the participating localities and can reside in his/her, or a surrogate, home is eligible for both the Outreach Detention/ Electronic Monitoring program.
